After discovering my right side cylinder compression is a wimpy 60 psi, I went about trying to figure out why.
1) Bad rings. Oil in the cylinder increases compression (in my case up to 150psi)
2) Valve Clearance too tight. Valves not closing completely
3) Carbon buildup keeping valves from closing completely.
4) Timing off
Now I haven't had a chance to check my valve clearances, nor spray down the valves with penetrating oil.
Is there any sure way of checking to make sure the lack of compression is not valve related?
