cyl 1 180, cyl 2 175 cyl 3 115, cyl 4 185 5% leakdown on all cylinders. do you guys think i might have a misadjusted valve on cyl 3? i tested cyl 3 twice and came out the same. please help

 

Could be the vavle(s) on that specific cylinder. But the best way to find out for sure is to pull off the head and inspect everything visually.

Good Luck!

 

could also be a bent rod. i'd try to inspect all the pistons at TDC to save the hassel of pulling the head off.

 

Don't pull the head to check, it's stupid right now.

Test leakdown again. Pull the oil dipstick, take the radiator cap off.

Have a buddy listen to your tailpipe, a buddy crank the car, and you and another buddy listen to the oil dipstick, throttle body, and watch the coolant.

If you hear it out your exhaust, it's the exhaust valve. Throttle body, it's intake valve. Oil dipstick, it's rings, and coolant, blown headgasket/cracked head/block.

Hear/see nothing, then pull the head.
