Hi all. I have a 80 vanagon with a new ominous claking sound . The compression is as follows. Cylinders 1-3 are at 90 psi, the 4th is 30-40 psi. The engine is a gex remanufactured one and it is about 9000 miles new(?). Would a stuck valve lifter cause this, or is it as bad as it sounds. Has anybody had any dealings with gex honoring their warranty? Thanks, Rudy B. Santa Rosa, CA '80 FI aircooled CA Vanagon '84 FI watercooled CA Vanagon
