You dropped a valve, pull the head off and you will see atleast 1 destroyed cyl

That's not detonation, that's a valve head bang'n around in the cylinder. Hopefully you didn't crack a sleeve too.

*sigh*

Honda - tech


Look at how the spark plug was damaged.

I have seen a motor that dropped valves in all four cylinders (exhaust cam slipping), I was there when the spark plugs were pulled out. I pulled the head off and saw what kind of marks each cylinder had.

A valve bouncing around in a cylinder doesn't tend to chew up material in that fine edges.

Remember that detonation can put holes in pistons, crack ringlands, break valves off, and yes damage spark plugs
and yes.. once a chunk of the spark plug is knocked off it too will bounce around the cylinder causing damage. However with a smaller and weaker chunk of metal, it will leave smaller grooves and indentations.

I hope you are more open minded with your "engine builds" and "chipping" than you are on your posts
