Changes in compression?
I did a comp test tonight.
I let the car cool enough so that I could touch it w/o 3rd degree burns, only let it sit like 30 mins or so...
Numbers when done by SS.
160 160 150 155
New numbers done by me and a Discount Auto guage.
160 165 165 160
Why this change? I thought my oil rings went bad. Now I think it's something in the head.
Any clues why the numbers (especially in cyl 3) have changed so much??

Carbon deposits around the rings sealed it up a bit??? I dunno. Different testers will give different results also.
