a 1997 Pontiac Bonneville, 3800v6 it is missing on cyl #3.
Dad took it to autozone and they said "low cylinder pressure on #3
So he did a compression check, all cylinders reads around 180-190psi, but cylinder #3 he cannot get a consistant reading(it goes from 125-185, but always lower than the other cylinders)
He took off the valve cover and removed the rocker arm and checked to see if a spring was broken, rod bent or stuck open.
He didn't find anything.
So what do we do from here?
