timing belt skipped, valves kissed pistons, opinions?
#17
Same thing happened to me except I have oem pistons (are yours oem?) and it only happened at startup...not under a load or at freeway speeds....pulled the head, did a complete timing job, got a head job with new stainless steel exhaust valves (only the exhaust valves kissed my pistons) and slapped her back on...DONE.
I will say I had NO marks on my piston tops....unlike you.
Runs almost like new again after this and I have 155,XXX miles....this just happened and I have less than 1000 on rebuilt head....
P.S. My timing slipped also...it was off by around 9 degrees on the exhaust side...
