    LOW LOW #s on compresion test!! HELP!!

    I'm pulling it...I agree with fidstang that knowing your motor is priceless. So, out she comes. The car ran great, I even drove it 130 miles home when I bought it...it has 163,000 miles on it, it is probably time. It just leaks oil and blows smoke when you get on it. thanks for your help guys...

    yeah i was kind of afraid of that. A friend of mine that knows quite a bit about engines told me the same thing. I guess I was just hoping for some better news.
