I'll look into that, thanks. That's a very generous offer. I'm a long way from Wisconsin!

I did a compression test on the low cylinders today and put a few squirts of oil in and sure enough the compression came up to 185. I'm going to try the process with EPR. A can in the oil and idle for four hours, then EPR on top of the pistons for an overnight soak. Then drain and fresh oil and filter. We'll see what happens. Figure I have nothing to lose. It's not likely to make the compression worse.
