If you are going to put pistons in, don't let them bore it until the pistons are numbered and in the machinists hands. The bore sizes are slightly different, IIRC number one has a different clearance than 2-4.
X2 on putting air in the cylinder to see where the leak is at.
Good luck and keep us posted!!!

It's not the gauge, it worked fine on cylinders 3 and 4. And again on 1-2-3-4 when I tried it again.
I am not sure what I am going to with the engine, if I am going to rebuild or replace.
I need to get a leakdown tester and see what the deal is I guess. Would be nice to just have a burnt valve or something.
