Default #4 Misfire....WTF
Well, I guess I figured out why #4 was misfiring!!!
Has anyone seen anything like this?
The arm is mashed down in between the spring and push rod.
Any suggestions?
Help needed and appreciated
​​

This is weird

Thanks for the reply. Yeah, I pulled the head and cleaned up. Replaced broken valve spring and push rod.
. Checked lifters and cam.
We're just fine.
Back together. No problems
