As many of you are aware, I advised Liz to stop driving her car when I observed exhaust gas venting out of the oil tank on Saturday morning in Moab.
We flat-bedded her home just to be safe. Looks like it was a good call. Compression check (cold) reveals: 1. 105 2. 100 3. 105 4. 90 5. -0- 6. 105 The engine has not eaten itself, so we're going in. #4 will receive a check as well. Attached image(s) ![]() |

I'm going to guess either a cracked or burnt piston; or a burnt/bent valve.
Just my guess, it could be a handfull of different things. Those are just the two that I've seen firsthand. Either way a bummer. Much less embarassing than the owner dropping a screw down the intake. (not me, a customer) |

Much less embarassing than the owner dropping a screw down the intake. (not me, a customer) btdt--a helper dropped a carb wingnut down a carb (have a ever said how much I hate carbs) and didn't tell me. Drove the car and chipped a small spot in a exhaust valve which when the engine get hot made it have a miss. Only when it was hot, drove me nuts especially when I was told about 2 weeks later about the dropped nut. |
