compression

can anyone tell me what the compression should be on the later XE and what the tollerences are please because i have a miss fire on cyl 1 i dont think it H/G because i got no sludge and i drove it about 60 miles like it so im thinking valve stuck open, burnt valve, pisron rings any other sugestions would be great thanks

160-200

psi i take it

yes mate

cool will be testing it tomorrow

No sludge doesnt mean your headgasket hasnt gone, oil and water dont always mix

Headgasket would be the easiest thing to fix too - even taking the plugs out can pretty much tell you whats up with it....

the plugs are clean and dry

iv blown head gaskets between cylinders before! no creamy oil etc just a bad missfire

ok i did the compression test and all cylinders came out very close to 200 im stumped now so i have taken off the injection rail and injectors to clean them put them back on but number 2 injector hasent sealed so go to do it again and i got loads of crap out of them

any other suggestions would be great i realy am stumped now
