Not knowing the year, mileage, and motor on the "sun bus" I could even venture a guess.

Tested the sunbus's compression today and got the
following:


(front)
#1 120  --  #3 120
#2 160  --  #4 145


I did not do a wet test.  (It was almost 1:30 am.)
Any thoughts on these results?


She has been running ok, but with a slight miss.
However, I found a plug wire (to #3) that was missing
the piece inside the insulation that connects to the
distributor cap.  It was firing by arcing across the
gap!!!  Obviously, plug wires are on order.
