Re: The Phoenix is not Dead ?

Then why was the Compression test result - 95 psi, 140 psi, 145 psi ?

Cylinder Number 1 was low.

Unless some chunk of crap happened to be lodged in the valve opening....

Anyway - even though I might not need it, I'm going to have the Stainless
Steel Valves put in and put 'er back together - I miss ma 'baby'....

...and I will retorque the Head Bolts at 100 mi and at 500 mi....just for the grins of it.

This 17 mpg thing with my Nissan Pathfinder (5,200 lbs empty) is killing me !

Oh - and yes Lord, I won't kill any more mice that get into The Phoenix ! Promise !
I'll trap 'em live and let 'em go...
