I don't think I have cracked head gaskets either. The exhaust is clean, I'm not losing coolant, and there's no oil in the radiator. I'm not planning on junking the car, just trying to scope out how bad the damage is. From what you say it sounds like it's not so bad and there would be plenty of people will to pay me a couple of bucks and take it on (especially considering it still runs great and I just took it over the pass a month ago). Can you belive the mechanic had the gall to write "This is a bad car" on the insepction report? It took great restraint for me not to call him up and threaten him. Thanks.

The test was written out like this: 75 120 150 90 -- don't know if there is a standard form. I didn't take the car there, some potential buyer did. Thanks.

I'm trying to sell my 88 subaru and a after an inispection a mechanic said the compression was low in two of the cylinders (75 and 90). The car runs great and has the same (limited) amount of power as its always had. Does this really qualify as low compression? Is there any possibility that the mechanic messed up the test... he appears to be a subaru hater. Thanks
