Hi Bryan,
-3 Fahrenheit. I want to check the compression again but just like several
others talking about it now, I have 1 cracked injector boss and it makes me
nervous each time I pull that injector. Mine were all 275 before installing
the engine but that was with jumper cables. I checked one cylinder after
it was installed because I had to pull #4 injector to find TDC since my
flywheel mark is off somehow. It still showed 275 but I don't think there
is anyway it would be running the way it is if it really were that low. It
runs rough in the morning for a minute or so but then smooths out and
purrs. I got a block heater for Christmas. Hope to get it in this week if
it warms up a little. Don't know what I am doing so I don't want to get
halfway into it and run into problems in these temps.
Thanks,
Bart
