Re: Broken Manifold Stud Replacement+another concern 200 84

Thanks guys, I appreciate where you are going with this. Believe me, not wet blanket here--I need to do this right.

I have taken compression readings in all four cylinders and they read between 118 and 125 psi. I never saw the engine smoke badly, the little smoke I did see led me to think the the crankcase ventilation system is clogged (and from all indications it seems to be fouled up and needs cleaning).

Since I will likely pull the head, have the valves looked at, and replace the head gasket what else should I be looking for?

The low compression worries me a bit. Should I be condsidering a ring job at this point also?

Thanks for the input,
