URGENT Need for Professional B.S. Detection Here..... 900 1995

Well, sort of....

The compression rings could theoretically be ok, while the oil ring could be bad. A leakdown test is probably in order. I had cancelled that test for tonight upon figuring out what the problem is, maybe.

Now, prior to disassmembly, the compression on 5 cylinders was in the 185-195 range, cold. This is pretty good. Of course #3 was at zero, due to the valve. But you know what? #3 was the culprit last time too.

I dunno.

My head is spinning.
