well the exhausht is not leaking i used gas was there for a couple of minutes havent done the intake cause i had other things to do but i got the block and used gas in all cylenders and 234 lost almost all gas but i let it sit for like 9 hours but piston 1 looked the same when i did the comp test couple of days it did not show me 230+ compression it was very low like the other ones looked at the pistons and didnt see any kind of wear so. question have you ever heard of 2 headgaskets with cooper spray????

so get those spark plugs and see??
