Bent valve symptoms

[Grant Lenahan]

Just for the record, many years ago, when i lost a TB on a 20-valve I-5, the total job, rolling the car in was about $2200.

Machine work, valves, dis-assembly, and TB job included.

Not a time i had the freedom to DIY.

now i have a box of bent valves.  Good conversation pieces. You'd be amazed how slight the bends (mostly) are.
