[QUOTE="MTBSully, post: 16985269, member: 92134"] Wasn't really a dig at you, as yes, you were transparent that compression is low. Just making a joke at my own expense with my latest project which was referenced here. That being said, i think you're downplaying how serious of an issue this is. 120PSI is significantly low. These motors aren't "known for low compression in these two cylinders". Some of the 2003s develop a head tick due to overheated valve guides, but it has nothing to do with compression. Cars can drive around for years with the head tick and still have perfect compression. Your car needs at the very least the heads removed, rebuilt and machined if you're lucky and its just a valve seat issue. Could be something worse. I'd guess it has worn or damaged rings in those two cylinders. If it was easy/cheap, i'm sure you would have fixed it already and asked top dollar for the car instead of driving it around hurt for 2 years. GLWS either way. [/QUOTE]
