I've got an MF-150 here that seemed like it was only running on 3 cylinders (out of 4)(Continental Z-145). Took the rocker cover off and found a dislocated push rod, reconnected it. Previously there was no power, rough running, and it was very smoky and blew oil out the exhaust. Now there doesn't seem to be any smoke, and it's a lot smoother but there's still very little power and it makes a noise under load. It sort of sounds like pop corn popping and only when you've lugged the rev's down. It also seems to be non-rythmic, as in not in time to any particular part of the engine. Currently the compression's in the region of 150-180psi. I'd appreciate any thoughts or ideas, many thanks, tractorsam
