i've have been having problems for a while with my truck. it slowly (month or so) went from normal, to bad mpg/low power/fuel smell, to dead on the road, wont start. after doing a quick compression test i have about 30 psi on cyl #1 and less than that on cyl #3 and #4. i didnt check the other three yet and i wont unless i have to but my best guess is that my timing set has slipped or broken and caused this issue. i had to do a timing set about 6 months ago after the little tooth sheared off of the bottom gear leaving me with similar compression test results. sound like im on the right track?
