If it is a burnt valve it is not wise to travel any long distance as you
may damage the valve seat considerably if it has non hardened seat
fitted and, as David Nock says a cracked head may be the result. It is
unlikely to be rings/bore as the drop in compression is to big.
What also could be checked easily is if the crank case ventilation blows
considerably , if so it could be a hole in the piston but than again the
compression would probably be lower than 25psi and a holed piston is not
something that happens often.
Burnt valves on UK cars are a regular occurrence. I have had them on the
Spitfire, Land Rover and on the Jensen-Healey, never on the Italian,
French, USA, German, Japanese or Korean cars I had/have but may be I was
lucky there.
