Dave, I missed it too! Yes, it's probably just a stuck valve. The best way to do that is to remove the head, get some PB Blaster or the like, and a rubber mallet. Turn the engine the other way and give it a sharp "whack", but not too hard as to bend the valve. I've done this several times with good luck and not bending the valve.

As for the w/w pump, never seen one of those, but now I will remember it!
