Well...figured out my rough idle issue. Low compression in #4.

Well, I finally got around to doing some more troubleshooting on my rough idle issue that popped up a while back. Did a compression test...all are 160-165psi.....except #4. It's only 55psi 😕 what's the best way to figure out if it's a ring/piston issue...or possibly a valve/spring issue? The plug for #4 looks pretty dark and sooty.

I guess that either way, the head needs to come off first. Right?
