Well folks we were ALL wrong...
It was not a piston
It was not a valve
It was...a cracked head!! ARRRRGGGGHHHH...magnaflux showed
deep crack between intake and exhaust valve on cylinder #4, extended
from bottom of head up through the exhaust valve seat...fortunately
Triumphs Only had good used heads, Wayne even picked out two of
the best, told me to check them out and return the one we did not
use...can't ask for better service than that...
