Well, the #1 Cylinder intake valve pushrod was bent. I pulled the valve cover and spun the pushrods by hand and it was obviously way out of whack. I loosened the adjuster and slid the rocker toward the back of the motor and pulled the rod right out. Took it into the shop and bent and rolled and bent and rolled and bent and rolled until it was pretty straight. Put it back in and will adjust cold and try it tommorow. Meanwhile, the carb is all torn apart and soaking in solvent overnight. We will see about that on Saturday.
How would the pushrod have gotten bent? All of the others appeared straight and true. That would mean the intake wasn't opening all the way. Probably wouldn't cause a miss or anything. Hmmmmm :confused:
