So my recent HeadGasket job has not fixed the problem...DOH DOH DOH. Did a compression test tonight and kinda broke my guage on the same cylinder 4 that was full of coolant when i did the HG. That sucker shot up past 300 some psi. Guess liquid dont compress to well. Well the car is gonna stay as is until i move to NY and have time to tear into it again. This time i take the head off, search for cracks, and send it out to a machine shop to check for level ness. On the upside i have a new set of head bolts on the way :) For some reason i feel i should be upset again, but i'm not. Just not exactly looking forward to the work again, but hey, sounds fun, again.


Note to future car repairers, dont try to skimp out on stuff, causes more work in the end.

This will show up any hairline cracks in your cylinder head.
