Well,
Things just aren't going well. I busted a o-ring on a fuel injector while replacing the intake manifold after the valve seal/guide troubleshoot. What a PITA.
No hint as to what is causing the prob. I know I must remove the heads now in order to finally see what is going on.
Best thing I can think of is a bad ring now. I'll post it when I find out.
Still amazing though, no freakin smoke.
Compression is within 5 percent on all cylinders including the known "bad" one, number 5.
