Incredible mpg! I drove to parent last night at the national speed limit 😂 and got 44k on the dial. It’s a 70 journey.

Have you checked for oil leaks everywhere possible?

To update you on compression findings - it’s a weird one, one that I need help with. I did these with my dad and results were all 380/390psi

Condition of the test were cold and ran through the glow plugs.

However, the first two tests on cylinder three gave me 250/260. I thought F#ck sake. So we checked cylinder 1 again to make sure it hadn’t broken. Nope, was fine 390 again. So we went back to cylinder 3. 8-10 cranks I was up at 380.

My thoughts now are do I have a bad ring? And did it draw in oil during the first few cranks to seal it by 120psi??

Will check cylinder 3 again tomorrow after rocker is changed and injectors are back in.

But yeah, the results are there for information.

Hope it helps someone
