I have a 1965 Internation Truck, Model 190 Cab-over fire truck. It has always run like a champ. Something very strange happend the last time I ran it. It ran perfect like always, I shut it off for about three hours, and tried to restart it. It wouldn't start. (turned over, but wouldn't fire.) I pulled it with my pickup, it started, but only ran on four cylinders, (big block V-8)and acted as though it was really burning oil. I took a compression test, and four cylinders are dead. Nothing. The other four are 110 lbs. Nothing happened while running!! It was sitting and I lost four cylinders worth of compression!! ANY THOUGHTS on why this has happened?
Thanks.
