Burned valves?

mustangurl00 · March 6th, 2011, 06:25 PM

I've had several people tell me that my valve (s) could be burned if I have a lot of misfiring in two of my cylinders. I can not drive me car because the misfiring is so excessive and the check engine light keeps flashing. I also had a mechanic tell me to change my spark plugs to see if that would render some result. This all occured from having some jokers cross over ignition wires. PLEASE HELP! I don't want to have to shove out a bunch of money to get my car fixed.

its prolly due to the ignition then. trace through everything and make sure its all good. and btw... go beat whoevers ass that fucked with your shit.

Are you sure the wires are still not crossed?

Also your wires may not be seated correctly

Sounds like an ignition problem. If you had burnt valves, your compression would be shit. You wouldn't be misfiring. Make absolute sure your wires are not crossed, are seated right (on the coil and the plug), and all coils are firing.

I so want to beat the shit out of the guys that fucked up my shit. Never again will they touch my car. I hope it really is just an ignition problem. I got some cheapo autolite copper plugs just so I could see if that is the problem and retrace the wires. I hope it is an easy fix. Thanks for your responses.

i changed the spark plugs same results. smoke still coming out of throttle body. i called around to a few shops and mechanics say it doesn't sound like a burned valve. so it's some crazy ignition problem. i guess i'll check the fuel injectors next.
