I can get behind that too. Miss my ill fated 70 142 to this day. There's nothing quite like that sewing machine tic tic tic. ... From: George Downs...

... The symptoms of a burnt valve DON'T go away when the engine is warmed up, and if they make any smell at all, it would be in the exhaust. Go see Vern and...
