Default Loss of compression

Measurements of 135, 145, 195, 195(1-4) on a cold motor tell the story. I can't afford what the local shops are charging to replace a head gasket, and I don't have the time to work on her myself.

I know I've said it before, but this might be the final straw. If anyone has stock injectors with less than 40k miles on them, I might be interested. Guess my goal of getting her in a mag will never materialize.

Don't give up yet Skip. Give Billman250 a shout, he's the only guy I trust my car with. He'd be more than willing to help and his work is top notch. PM if you want his cell number.
