Damn. I could have swore I typed 5th to 4th haha. Oh well. Shit happens haha.

Out of like 15 vehicles that I've owned, only 2 have been automatics, you would think that I would know how to drive by now haha. Live and learn I guess.

Hey you think you can do a DIY on it? It would be really grateful incase someone else needs to do it too.

Well I didn't get any pics, honestly most of it is a blur. Ran into a lot of problems.

Look at this, found the problem:

It wasn't bent... It was toasted.

I had the same thing on mine. Cooked some valves but it was from tight clearances. My post has pics if you want to look it up.

Pretty sure mine was from a bad injector. I had a misfire cel that I continued to drive on. Replaced the injectors finally and it went away, pretty sure that the damage was already done though. Cel came back on later and it was the burnt valve. My overrev probably had nothing to do with this. It's just an assumption though.
