Knocking noise and stuck exhuast valve on Honda GCV 160 engine

Engine would not start, found stuck exhaust valve and broken rocker arm. Was then able to start engine, but then had knocking noise. Tore down engine and found play in connecting rod assembly where it connected to crankshaft. Replaced connecting rod assembly, new rings, honed out cylinder and replaced rocker arm. Cleaned all parts.
After reassembly, did not have any compression, found adjustment out on the rocker arms, was keeping exhaust valve open a little, not allowing compression to build up. Adjusted, then after two or three pulls, engine started.
With the timing belt, it is important to make sure that is reassembled correctly to have valves timed properly. Found a video on youtube that explained how to do that.
