Re: Befuddled with engine problem
Well, first and foremost thank you all for your comments and guidance. I got back to work on the truck this morning and after last week adventures; I decided to go over the valves again just to be sure.
After the engine warmed up I pulled the right valve cover and found #4 intake with no movement at all. Great oil pressure coming up from the push rod - but no movement. I attempted to re-adjust but it completely bottomed out with no change except to drag down the idle.
It would appear that my worst fears are confirmed and the cam is wiped or best case a bent push rod. It's interesting that last week #6 - both intake and exhaust were inoperative. After adjusting they seem fine.
Thoughts - time to pull the cam?
(I took a short video but don't know how to up load it)
