    I did a compression test and came up with only 45 on No1 and 50 on No2, currently pulling her apart to see what other items will need replacement.

    I would pull the cylinder head and intake covers….Maybe just some stiff rings from sitting around…Perhaps blown head gasket…It is important to know that these engines have relatively low compression…85PSI is “normal” for these engines.
