Default Re: Vacuum testing to diagnose fast idle

poor compression should be fixed. burnt or bent valve. maybe get lucky and its a bad head gasket. For worn guides you would need to take out the valves mine bent on the way out so got a new set of old style nos for $30. the valves cant grow. seats can be lapped down. but someone willing to do that amount of lapping will probably correct stem length.
