[QUOTE="GILL, post: 1757, member: 265"] Well I tried to determine if it's ring wear or valves by adding oil in cylinder. I added about two - three ounces and cranked engine then checked, no real difference. In asking other people their ideas some think I should add and then immediately check. I did this last night and have pumped oil into my compression guage sticking the needle at 45 psi. In talking to a reseller that has some experience with this engine he says this Ford is bad for burning valves. I have a carb rebuild kit and will try to get carb on this weekend and warm engine with a propane heater to see if that helps. If not, it may be time to pull head. I don't really know how to get this thing at TDC to see if valves are closed all the way or not. [/QUOTE]
