This is a good suggestion. It will leak some oil with the valve cover off, but 
we're desperate. Don't forget to top up the oil afterwards.

I think you might even be able to put a finger on a rocker arm and feel what it 
is doing. The rocker movements should all feel the same: quick but smooth.

Could you have gotten a keeper in there wrong, so that one of the retainers is 
tilted, causing the valve to bind?
