While i was checking valve lash I cranked enough to see the oil level rise up the cylinder stem...Intake valve seemed tight so I backed off both to .003 for a tappety happy tappets.

Spark plug was dark with a brown tint...not lean which is fine.

went for blast around the yard came back to garage...oil radiator was cold...

I can only assume its an air lock...not sure what would be best system bleed procedure?
