Ok So the car ran like shit (thought it was on 3 cyl because the plug was so fouled). Decided to do a compression test again and got 10psi on #3
Took the engine apart and the valve has a whole in it.
So now I know I need new valves and stuff, how can I check the bottom end, and turbo to see if they are ok?
Thanks

While you have the head off,LOOK at the #3 piston.Dose it look ok?I would have to think there would be a melted piston before a hole in the valve would occure.Valves don't just get holes in them!!!
