Although you say you're no mechanic jeeps ain't hard to work with, when you say it's running horrible describe it a lil. And most places with pull you pants down. I was by meineke and they charged someone 500 for 4 brake pads and front rotors. That's something that can easily be done

had 2 compression tests.....

1 shows zero compression in cyl #3 and 175 psi in the rest.

The other test shows no compression in both # 3 and #4 cyls, and 40 psi in cyl 6??

1st test was from a friend the second was from a garage...WTF??? How could they be so drastically different?

Guess this means I'm screwed....its gonna be valve train or gaskets....right?
