Ok well my fresh built h23 vtec came close to the 500 mile mark and while going 75mph on the freeway one cylinder went dead. When i got home I did a compression test and cylinder 1 had nothing, 2, 3 and 4 had about 240.
I am getting no smoke out the exhaust oil is full, coolant dropped a little but i don't know if it is really enough for to say blown head gasket. I pulled the valve cover and everything looks tight up there and all the valves on all cylinders seem to move about the same. The only thing I really think it could be is the cometic gasket is shit (I worked there, i seen what comes out of that place) or a valve bent. Just wondering if any of you guys have a suggestion. Also I haven't taken this motor past 6500 rpms. ok well once it saw 7k. but just once.
well any ideas?? help please
