05 Chevy Trailblazer 4.2l with 192,000 Miles-
This is a project I'm doing with my son before he goes to vocational school for auto mechanic in my garage so he can get a feel if this is what he wants to study auto repair. I know basics like changing stuff fuel pumps, water pumps, gaskets etc.
Did wet and dry compression test results:
Cylinder #1: Dry =170 -=- Wet =180
Cylinder #2: Dry =179 -=- Wet = 180
Cylinder #3: Dry =60 -=- Wet = 62 (oil in cyclinder and on spark plug?)
Cylinder #4: Dry =0 -=- Wet = 2
Cylinder #5: Dry =170 -=- Wet = 180
Cylinder #6: Dry =160 -=- Wet = 170
We watched this video which helped us see your some of the adventure we have a head of us
Questions:
If I purchase a re-manufactured cylinder head from for $455.00 and new gasket set will this fix the compression issue?
Can any one direct me to were I can download a PDF or instructions on changing the cylinder head with bolt torx settings.
Also my main concern is is resetting the timing correctly.
Any instruction links, Video links and advice is greatly appreciate
