Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

What do you think of these price quotes from my local parts guy for my 1.9L wbx all German new oem heads---$365 ea head set: $59 valve cover gasket $1 W7DTC Bosch spark plugs $3.50......plus 4's = $5 7mm FI hose $6 meter vacuum hose $3 M

Compression is down to 60 lbs on cyl #3, cyl #1 is 100, #2 is 150, #4 is 135lbs Hopefully I'll find a broken valve spring when I remove the valve cover and all I'll have to buy is a new spring, otherwise time to get deep into the motor and my pocket

Malibu Tony 85' Westy 1.9L 5 degrees BTDC Bosch W7DTC spark plugs still able to hobble along the 101 at 60 -75mph depending on grade
