If you have access to them, they are both good test to be done at that milage anyway

Hi everyone well after chasing round all afternoon i was unable to rent or purchase a coolant pressure tester with an adapter that fit i `will do a compression test tomorrow,,,,,just to see where things are,,,,,,thing is with this millage should i maybe just go ahead and tear it down?the truck is off the road and garaged,,,been a good truck this far quick question should i still go ahead and warm it up with the obvious misfiring or do cold thanks:)

I think I read that the pressure test that advanced uses fit LR, not sure I have one from HF.
but it would be interesting to see what your final numbers, are already you have 10% difference from right to left.

Thank you for your reply i am going to redo the test warm and will post after should i get the necessary fittings to do a coolant system check?want to rule out slipped liner as much as possible before teardown no smoke in exhaust...... or will the condition of the head gasket show a slipped liner?

I would also pressure test the cooling system so you don't have any surprises.


on you compression test if you put a table spoon on oil in the cylinder and the pressure goes up substancally then you most likely need rings

Thank you will proceed with that and let you know have a good day
