    Only if you had the crank out of the way.

    Well, that's what two or three mechanics (and this newsgroup, for that
    matter) suggested when my previous 87 Accord had the same problem
    several years ago. Had the head fully rebuilt, but it didn't help,
    which is why I'm searching for another course of action before going the
    expensive route on this one.

    some people have claimed drizzling water in the intake will loosen
    carbon and possibly free stuck rings. not too much though- just enough
    to make a cloud of steam in the exhaust.

    How about misting some in with a spray bottle?

    Hmmm, worth a try...

    John,
    Excellent post. I believe that you are correct as to the cause of the
    problem. It makes perfect sense to anyone that has ever worked on lots of
    engines. I have never seen this problem while working on engines. It would
    be a problem that would be hard to find unless you were looking for it. I
    learned a lot from your post.
