Do you mean you get 0-30psi on all four cylinders? I
don't get it since the readings were so high the first
time.

That one cylinder you'll need to check. I wouldn't
drive it like that (I had the same problem with my car
-- broken top ring on cylinder 3 was the problem), but
others have much more experience with this sort of
thing.

If you are only getting 0-30psi though, most likely
you don't have enough suction on the intake to pull
the fuel mixture into the combustion chamber in the
first place?
