w-4 compression

Posted by Bob Quale on August 27, 2003 at 16:44:14 from (208.164.49.189):

I'm trying to fix an old W-4 that burnes oil. I did a compression check and got 100psi on #1 and #2 and 105 on #3 and #4. I got 75psi on the first stroke on all four. I don't know what the compression should be but all look equal. The pistons are flat on top when I look in the sparkplug hole. It burnes oil, so I figure it is comming from the valve guides. I plan on taking the head off, how would I know if I should replace the pistons and sleves? What do you think of my diagnosis?

Thanks Bob
