      The part that burns first is inside the combustion chamber, actually where it seals on the valve seat. You can't see that unless you pull the head. You wouldn't see a burnt valve from the port unless it was so burnt a big pie wedge was burned out of it. Same with looking through the spark plug hole.

      Again, what does the compression test say?

        Haven't done a compression check yet, I am going to in the next day or two. I am waiting for cylinder 2 to burn off some of its build up before testing.

          Also, ONLY while I'm on the throttle I have a light ticking noise coming from motor (sounds like more from top right side). Only appears when I have the throttle open, even just a hair and it doesn't get louder as i open the throttle just faster as RPM's increase. Yes, all valves are in spec and timing, no scoring on cam. Is this just normal Valve train noises?
