I mean, there is a 95% chance the bottom end of the motor is still really worn out, and I should do a leak down test. 150 compression on #3 is very real. The #3 cylinder is also less hot when you hit the exhaust manifold with an IR temp probe at idle as a result. I’m just going to boost the crap out of it and see how long it holds up. It’s been fine for 9 years and 30k miles. I don’t really care so long as it doesn’t impact drivability.
