Hello sixers: After 11 years of owning my '72 TR6, I have just done a compression check. I measured 155,150,145,150,155 and 150 psi. The problem is, what should the compression be for a 72? I know th

Steve--The pressures that you've indicated for your '72 are a bit higher than what is generally agreed is "normal" for an engine with the 7.75:1 compressure ratio. Interestingly enough, these are abo

Your right, I neglected to mention that the fouling plugs were No's 1,3 and 6. The other three are a light gray or ash colored. Blue smoke is definitely following my car around and after doing the d

Steve--"Metallic scuffing around #1 piston"--Don't think (cold) piston slap would be the first choice here. Sometimes you can get closer to the cause by using a stethoscope. (They're cheap and last f
