Bent valve??

[89zenkihatchback]

How can I tell valves are bent. I got a good deal on 89 240sx
But they say valves are bent and the motor half way torn down so how can I tell if they are really bent. Any help would be great thank you.

Take them out, roll them on a flat surface. See if they roll in a relatively even circle. lol. Not super accurate, but will do.

Google will come up with other helpful, informative ways to check each individual valve.

nows your chance to buy a used $300 KA24DE engine and forget about all that filthy tear-down rebuild stuff.

I might have to do a engine swap with a 5 speed swap at the same time

How hard is it to change valves

Do a compression test, if the compression is 0, gauranteed bent valve.
