Going by your member ride, which is either a VZ V6 or VE V6, then it would likely be caused by the timing being out.

If you have any more questions please don't hesitate to ask.

Kindest Regards,
Steve

Steve,

Thanks for reply no luck I re done timing and still low compression on r/h side cylinders all 75,70,75 psi

L/h side 145,135,140 psi
I see new water pump been replaced and head gasket has no visible breaks but I'm wondering if gasket is stuffed, not sure on these mls type gaskets ..
Could it be head gasket, I took r/h head off just did a water leak yeast on valves and no leaks, have not done a head off pressure test yet..
Gasket looks like mostly all the rubber type seal that sits on surface is missing or worn off..
I hear these gaskets pretty good. I'm wondering if over heated prior to my purchase that's why head compression low..
I purchased car as is not running, I got going but barely wants to idle and runs severely rough.
Any help appreciated

Could be a blown head gasket. Did the car have any fault codes prior to issue?

 

[Cruisy2650]

This is a recent purchase

Car was scanned by a friends work gscan scanner and he said had no faults at all .

I see car has a new water pump
On it so I suspect it may be a
Gasket ..
