Exact same thing happened to me after a fill up. I thought I had bad gas, but broken valve spring. I have 3 extra brand new GM springs if you want them,just pay the shipping. I also made a bunch of valve spring compressors to be used on the car with heads installed. I had no other damage to the valves or the piston. I removed spark plug filled the cylinder with compressed air to keep the valves closed and did the spring swap without any trouble.

I bet bad gas I had it happen to me years ago. Around me there are a few BP gas stations that are owned privately. The one by my house was adding something to their gas so BP pulled everything that said BP on
