There you have it.
I pulled the head and it looks like the intake valves don't seat right in
cylinder #2.
My spare 16V head will have to be examined and the valve guides will have to
be replaced before it goes anywhere.

Thanks for the help guys, much appreciated.
I will have the car running by early to mid week.
If you guys want to see some pics I'll take some tomorrow.

Mark Reda.
