I have replaced numerous parts, and the idle continues to be very rough. A compression test yesterday found the following:
Cyl 1 - 190
Cyl 2 - 45
Cyl 3 - 45
Cyl 4 - 180
When testing 2 or 3, the opposite cylinder puffs air while cranking. My diagnosis is a blown head gasket since air from one cylinder is crossing to the adjacent cylinder. Correct?
The head gasket was just replaced in the summer from a coolant hose bursting and then overheat. Recently, another hose gave out and it was caught before the engine climbed into the red on the temp gauge. It was shut off and towed home. The hose was replaced, coolant added and driven for four days before the problem started. Are the gaskets that sensitive to high temps?
