low commpresion 1 cyl.

hey guys i am looking at a '96 DRW 2 wheel drive. Comression checked and 1 hole is 30# lower than the rest dont know what cyl. yet numbers were @ 400# for the rest low miles on the speedo but this truck was a drill rig so im sure has many running hours. #s dont seem to awful bad based on what i read in the search forum, most replies pointed to upper end /valve train? BTW replaced 3inj with reman inj. when they were in there as well as glow plugs
Thoughts- thanks

I wouldn't think twice about 370psi compression...go for it (as long as the compressor wheels does not look "sandblasted" from poor air filtration)

take care~

Sounds good to me.

I wish the one hole I had read that high.

230# in #7 don't cut it.:doh:

turns out 1 injector had a broken spring nozzle, and someone put a AB code in it, runs good now, night & day diff. plates are expired so really havent drove it far may be some air stiil in the system.

Sounds good to me.
