Re: [Chrysler300] 300F Engine Troubles

["Warren Anderson" <wranderson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

  If symptoms leading to a compression check came on suddenly, a cylinder leak down test would be a normal next test. With your engine configuration it will not be easy for sure  but pulling the valve covers and checking the valve train for proper action would also  be a recommended next test.

  Greetings 300 Club Members:

  I did a compression check on my 413 and found two bad cylinders. Numbers 5 & 6 (across from each other) are at 55 psi. The others are 130 - 135 psi. The engine has a strange sound when warm at idle ... not a rod bearing ... it's softer than that. All cylinders were at 130 - 135 psi 8-years ago. Any ideas from the brain truss? Thank you!
