My 1985T just died on me. So I got it back home and did some compression checks. I am getting like 99 lbs in the cylinders. Is this a normal number? I have 351,000 miles on the car and I still get over 30 mpg. But lately she hasnt been running to good. Bad idling and etc... Right now it wont start and sounds like it doesnt have compression. I have no oil or gas or water showing up anywhere it doesnt belong.
Any help is greatly apriciated. I am thinking of tearing it down and puttng in new rings and head gasket. But I am looking for help troubleshooting this before I go to that extent.
