Where should i be at? I did a check here at the house and it did not look so well......
110
110
95
85

Maybe a couple valves? Cracked block? I think its time for a new head, Let me know what you guys are running-Tony
 
ouch, those are awful numbers especially ona 2g...

first make sure the gauge is right.... cheapest solution, second, pour some oil into each cylinder and do test again, if numbers increase greatly, youre rings are gone, and youre looking at a hefty bill...

if not get a leakdown test done, but ya look to spend some cash real soon...

ps. how much oil do you burn?
 
Test again!! Those numbers are bad...do exactly what the guy above me said to do...only reason I'm posting is to tell you that you should be getting 175-185 range.
