Don't know exactly, but I am going to find out. I tink most of the chain is intact. Just the other end that broke is caught on something.
Assuming that two cylinders will have valves in the closed position. I just checked numbers 1 and 4 by using my compression gauge setup. I pulled out the check valve and screwed the adapter into the spark plug threads. Then I fired up the compresser to 60 or so lbs and attached the end of the hose to the disconnect. Then I heard the rush of air passing though the exhaust as is went past the bent valve. At least 1 and 4 are bent and I assume they all are. I don't think I heard anything pass through the intakes, but I still have the air filter and cover attached. How am I ever going to convince my wife that these are reliable cars?
