I have low compression on two consecutive cylinders. I had a compression test done to discover this. How do I replace the head gasket and valves that are causing the low compression? Thank you.

Hi there,

You may have the means to remove the cylinder head, but the valve work requires an amount of machining as dose the cylinder head as well. If you intended to do this job, you would be best advised to purchase a work shop manual and study the relevant section. Check that you have the require skill level and understanding of what has to be done. also you may find that there are tools tat you don't have which are critical to the job. Get a manual and go from there.
