And not a fan of thermo fans

I'm guessing a valve/head/rocker issue, slowly lost power, then started missing on what felt like one cylinder, then two. There was a deisel rattle in the top somewhere (cant trust my ears, but ruffly) at the top of a big hill. I thought it was the altitude. Could have a broken ring, too. Went out i...

was in a crash but low kays.......could be a way to get the auto parts cheap as engine was already partially stripped some weeks ago.
