Coolwazabi Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 my friends buick is weird... we check the compression on all the cylinders and there around 60PSI... the haynes book says a minimum of 100PSI on each cylinder... the tachometer says at 1000rpm its around 60... at about 2000rpm its around 80-85 and about 3000rpm its at 100-105... now i know that 3000rpm in drive is too high... but he also needs the psi... i guess to move the car... what should i tell him besides get a new car ?

sayin0487 Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 also check the water and look for oil in it. and check the oil for water. one or the other could be happening with a bad head gasket. blowing white smoke would also be a sure sign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
