601 ford compression

jmducks1 · Jul 4, 2011

Ford 601 has #1-95psi 2-doesnt register on gauge and 3- doesnt register ,4 has 95 psi. The tractor is a very hard starter and doesnt have much power. Would it be a head gasket??

Very likely a blown head gasket between 2 & 3.

(quoted from post at 19:39:09 07/04/11) Very likely a blown head gasket between 2 & 3.

My thought as well.

Sticky valves when it's that low.

Could be stuck or broken rings too.

It sounds like a thoroughly worn engine with a blown head gasket between 2 and 3.
