YS-91 AC problem

[Ken Thompson]

Paul,

I'm going to pull the head and drop the valves out to clean them.  Is there an easier way?

    Thank you to all who gave me places to look for my problem.
    Somebody gave me the thought that maybe it was carbon deposits on a valve, I'm sorry I don't remember who.  I dismissed this theory because the valves seemed to be operating properly.
    Early this morning Mike Darr stopped by to check out my damaged Excelleron and took a look at my motor for me.  He manually worked the valves and all of a sudden the compression came back.  It looks like there was carbon on the valves after all.  He told me what to do and I should have it fixed as soon as I get back from Norfolk, a little trip this weekend to go out for the day on the USS Theodore Roosevelt.
    Thank you all again and thanks to Mike for showing me what to do.
