Just got towed home.
Driving along on the highway back to my place (went for a little 5 mile run to see if I finally got it) and I was starting to hear a bit more clatter from the valvtrain so figured the problem is out of my capabilities to deal with. A little miss....a second later another little miss, getting ready to shut her down, and it took care of all that for me. Done....all she wrote....Didn't hear anything mechanical break, but who the heck knows. I'm finished.
Thought it might have at the distributor gear or something, but it didn't. Hit the throttle and I see gas squirting into the chambers...Haven't checked the electrical, except to say that nothing has changed and other elictrical is fine.
Oil pressure was good (70-75 on hwy), and temp was 185-190.
Pulled valve covers again, checked clearance on some of them, and they're way off again. .035 or so. What the heck, over?
Why?
