[QUOTE="beef, post: 568387, member: 16344"] If, as it looks, the spring is compressed, then unfortunately it looks as though you have problems. As sparkywig says, probably a damaged valve guide. Another possiblity is something physically under the valve head, but that's extremely unlikely if the engine was running fine. My advice is to remove the head. A sticking valve isn't too hard to remedy one the head is off, and it will eventually need fixing anyway. Left alone, it won't do the engine any good. [/QUOTE]
