zilch for compression on #1
Hi Gang,
I did a compression test on a GMC 7.4L in a pleasure boat.
All except #1 were close to 180 psi
#1 was zero
I put the crank on #1 TDC and put shop air into spark plug hole and we can hear air leaking out the throttle body.
Today I pulled that head off .
The exhaust valve looks like it has a nice shiny surface where it seats but the intake doesn't.
All the push rods look good.
I'll do a valve grind.
my question
Are the head bolts reusable?
thanks
Hank
The first model car I built was a 32 Ford roadster by Revell in the mid 50's.
How did you get hooked on cars?
