    Head gasket leak on a 95 D1 with 190K

    My question is.......do I do a valve job on an engine thats got 190,000 miles on it? The engine runs fine, good power, runs smooth, does not burn oil, it has a slight tick at idle. I haven't done a compression test yet, I assume its ok because it runs smooth at idle and above???? Is it wise to...
