Hi all I have no compression on cyl 2. Does anyone know a mechanic near me in East Yorkshire who could remove head and fit new valves for me?
Any help much appreciated. Thanks
 
Hi it has been running on lpg and it is known for this to happen. It's had new plugs and coil packs thren a compression test.
Cylinder 2 is zero. Thanks
 
If it's zero, then it's more than just valves - maybe you should be looking for someone to diagnose the concern before committing to a repair that may not do what you expect.
 
Hi the valve is split which is giving the zero reading all other cylinders are spot on compression. Bore and piston unharmrmed and good. Need a mechanic who will tackle the job now. Thanks

So perhaps it should be both heads and all valves or you may be doing the job again.

I have used an endoscope on all bores and compression tested them and all good apart from cyl 2.
I guess these engines don't like lpg
 
What condition is the seat in? would be my first question on removing the head, quickly followed by 'what about the others?'
Obviously Cyl 2 was all good, right up ro the point it wasn't. How confident are you that it just needs attention on one cylinder on one head?
I'm not looking for a debate, just pointing out that this may be an exercise you have to repeat...

As above, waste of time IMO doing just one pair of valves. If one has failed, how long before another goes and maybe does some serious damage?
