Nurse Julie:
Spent some time this morning stripping the head and cleaning and generally having a good inspection of the parts. The valves are all straight, very minor pitting so will just need re facing. Valve springs all OK and the observant ones of you will notice I have lost a washer in the process. It’s here somewhere !!!.

Now, for those of you of a nervous disposition, you may want to sit down for the next bit.........
I cleaned the head fully and once all the old carbon and crud was off, look what I found !!!. No.s 1,2 and 3 totally bashed in. No.4 is ok. On the pistons the top rings are missing completely, there is a serious amount of damage to the top sides of the pistons and the edges of the top of the pistons look like the mice have been chewing at them. No.4 is fine, no damage whatsoever.
No 4 and 3
