bent or burnt... who knows. The only way to find out was to pay for to tear the motor down, and I wasn't about to do that. The car had 125k miles on it and no telling what other problems were in that motor, so I opted for the new one.
I didn't end up getting the motor back because they wanted 1000 core charge to keep my motor. Forget that.
Alls signs point to Midas though. I asked the guy if it was working when he drove it before he did the alignment. He said yes. I wish I had a tape recorder for that one. He just told me he broke it right there. I'm not doubting what your saying, ratrapp, but the evidence is pilling up. Can a bent or burnt valve happen without running it hard?
