[T3] 25 pounds of compression corrected itself
<x-charset iso-8859-1>
Well I had 25 pounds of compression on the # 3 cylinder , I thought my
engine was
toast, that was last week, the spark plug was black . A few days after that,
I
added all of those oil detergents that clean the engine via the motor oil
and
my compression was restored to 125 pounds. I beleive my compression rings
were stuck,
even though I have those total seal rings. I think my mixture was set too
rich and carbonized
the rings. I hope they are clean now. I have corrected my rich condition and
my plugs
are white again. Do you think my engine will hold for Parma ? I still drive
like a madman
and have a little story to tell in the next e-mail.
