Thanks for the reccomend on the soak, pulled the v/c off, found a bent push rod and 3 stuck valves and one partially stuck. To free them up, I tapped them down as far as they would go (one at a time), one came back on spring tension, the other 3 needed to be pushed up and down a few times to free them up, their still sticky so will stay on them with soaking.
