Most definately. Emissions rules took effect that year, so compression is low (less than 8.5).

I have a 1994 F-150 xlt with a 351 that has started knocking with three different engines, the mechanics say it is the computer that is blowing these engines. Is there a common computer problem with this year and model. what should I do?
You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
