Hey guys need a confirmation on what I think is going on. I have a 2008 Ranger 3.0 with a cyl 6 missfire. I have only about 40 lbs of compression in #5 150 in all others. Did a cylinder leakdown test and has no leakdown. I am thinking something is wrong with the cam, but on a roller cam??? :icon_confused:
