Ok, this is my Town Car, but I am posting here because this section gets more action.
Anyway, driving the car, stopped at a light and the car suddenly starts running like crap. Missing and the cel comes on. I limp it home and take it to AZ to read the codes:
Mis-fire on cyl 3 and 4
Replaced plugs and coils.......No dice, still runs like crap.
Took it to my friend to look at. He runs compression check:
0 on #3 and 80 on #4
Crap, he pulls valve cover....nothing
Pulls head......nothing
? WTF.... Head looks good, valves look good, headgasket looks good, piston and cyl look good
I am going to help him check it over tomorrow, so any ideas ?

Now wax on wax off. Danyellson. When you own a race car you leakdown all 8 after ever race. I like my one gauge Moroso one. 0 it out then plug it into cyl and it shows exact leakdown on big 4 inch gauge. Remember to have piston on TDC or air will shove piston down fast. Can't get good reading unless piston at TDC.
