Default Re: Only starts when lightly pressed

If I would have to guess I would say you intake valves are sinking in head. Remove the valve cover, take a close up of your valve springs and post them here. I would like to see how many more threads are showing on the intakes. For these engines to perform top notch you need 170 pounds of compression. Post that picture
Here is what the underside looks like
