Well, the verdict is in. The rocker on the exhaust side of number 1 cylinder failed. I tried to get some pictures but don't know how good they are. I'm going to pull the head later today to make sure the piston is damaged. Can't see why a screwed up lifter would prevent a cylinder from building compression. Not sure. In any event, here are some photos.
