You know what? 120-130

My car has this sound... And it's a junk yard b20b that was so coked up with waxy dirty oil residue that it shouldn't have had good compression.

I don't know how long it's had it, but it definitely has this exact sound. It's been months, for sure, and I've been beating the piss out of it anyway. Should I stop? Hahaha.

Thoughts of letting the car go run through my mind... Or, keeping the car until the motor does expire, then sell the car as a while minus the carbs and ignition. It has other issues, but that's another story.

Curious as to what the machinist says.
