WoodsWagon Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 I've now run across 4 burned exhaust valves in EJ22's Konrad/soo's 1995 EJ22 My 1992 EJ22 twice Here's one of them: Customer at a local shop's 92 EJ22 I did a search and turned up: 94 EJ22 http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=59287 All the valve's ive seen have big pie-slice chunks missing out of them, with slag tails going off the back, just like someone took a cutting torch to the valve.

Manarius Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 I think I'd argue that the Achilles' heel in the EJ22 is the lean-ness of cylinder #4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86BRATMAN Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 Well, I wonder if the burnt valves have been primarily on #4. That would explain a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porcupine73 Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 Were they maybe not closing all the way or something stuck on the seats or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
