cylinder three has low compression (125psi) Help!
Whats up guts I have a B17a and I had a compression test done on it at the dealership and they told me that cylinder 3 has low compression(125psi) but all others are at 195. What could be causing this and how could I fix it?? Thanks

they should have done a leakdown for you and tell you what was causing it, can be piston rings, headgasket, valveseal or even a cracked piston ... hard to say from a simple compression number.

Re: cylinder three has low compression (BrandonClaps)
where do you add the teaspon? right into the spark plug opening or in the oil fill cap on valve cover?
