Thanks for the great description Eric, but I was actually looking for an
answer to "How do I tell if my valve's are floating" .. what
seat-of-the-pants occurrance tells me that my valves are floating.. complete
lack of power, (or most power) due to the combustion process flushing right
out the valves as it happens, or.. ?

How do I tell my valves are floating.. 

Thanks,
