I have a l952 Harry Ferguson, TO-30. Developed an intermittent miss. Replaced plugs, wires, checked everything including carburetor, everything ok. Did compression check. All checked low, 80-110 psi. Wet check only raised psi 5-10lbs. in each cyl. No.4 cyl has oil on the plug(raw oil). No blue smoke out of tail pipe. Went to a slightly hotter plug. Seemed to help somewhat. Am I right in assuming that the head is mainly the problem and with only a slight rise with the wet check, does that indicate ring problems as well or is that normal.Have no idea what repairs was done prior to my obtaining it in "97. Any input would be appreciated.....
