Could I have good compression in all cylinders and still have a head gasket leak or cracked head?
cylinder psi readings
1 125psi
2 140psi
3 140psi
4 132psi
5 125psi
6 130psi
If i leave the pressure cap off the fill bottle, when the engine warms up, fluid will boil out. Should It do this? does this mean exhaust gas is getting into the radiator fluid. The fluid looks a little foamy. The jeep is new to my buddy and the people he got it from said it was over heating on them. Any suggestions would be great. John McHorney
