hey sorry i am a dumb ***. i just saw the up on the gear it was barly there but now i got it there. i have 180 compression in all cylnders but in four its only 80??????? and when i crank the car it almost starts but dose not and my plugs get all soked in fuel.... should it still start with that little compression in the last cylnder or could this be why its not starting?
