Question

How do you fix low compression on a diesel engine?

Answer 1

Explanation:

A healthy engine should have 100 PSI per cylinder. If two cylinders next to each other both have low pressure, a blown head gasket is a likely culprit. If you discover you do have low compression, the only solution is to replace the leaking part whether it's the piston, piston ring, camshaft, head gasket or valves.
