tests was done with full battery charge 5 cranks from starter motor. dropped some oil into #4 and retest with same results. i think a valve or spring went bad....so sad

Good luck on the stock motor Matthel, the least you need now is another engine replacement....
BTW, do you have a spare non-locking 5-speed manual tranny sitting around????

Dude. If you can get to the valve spring by using compressed air, that would be 10x easier than swapping motors. Plus you would be swapping a weaker motor in. Keep the faith!
I just got done swapping motors. A big pain!
