72964, help cont... Posted by Eclipsemh2k, Apr-16-04 07:44 AM
I went and did a compression check on my cylinders today.
1 180 2 180 3 180 4 210
So my next question is ...does that look right? Could I still have a rod about to blow or maybe its a valve tapping? The spark plugs looked like they were caked in oil... any ideas will help :)

thats weird. usually if you have 3 cyl. that are the same the 4th is lower. did you try adding a little oil to the cylinders and checking the compression again. if not you should. it the compression goes up it's your rings.
