I bought a 95 wagon with a burned valve on number 1. Engine had been overheated as well. Head gasket was blown out on 4 and I think it ran low on coolant which contributed to the burn. Whole cooling system on that car was a mess, except for the spankin new radiator!

So you think its the exhaust valve I'm almost certain that's what it is?

I did a leak down test I heard no air coming back from the intake

nor did I hear anything coming out of the oil dipstick

it definitely sounds like it's coming out the exhaust

I think more likely it's only one or two of them?
