Moment of truth

EDIT: FYI THIS THREAD INVOLVES AN E30, A PRICE DROP, AND A PHONE NUMBER FOR TEXTING. PLEASE READ, BEFORE TXTING

As you guys know, I'm selling Christine. I love her, but it's no longer "cheaper to keep her" because of the E34. She's been over heating, and I wasn't sure why, replaced a bunch of parts but nothing gave.

So today I had the compression checked, and it went like this:

Cylinder#1 = 140
Cylinder#2 = 140
Cylinder#3 = 138
Cylinder#4 = 120
Cylinder#5 = 118
Cylinder#6 = 120

Needless to say I was disappointed, but at least now I'm sure it's a gasket issue.

I still need to sell my baby, so I'm dropping the price to $800 OBO. I'm letting her go ASAP, because I have school related expenses that I've been putting off, that can't be put off any longer...bluh. If you're interested, send a txt. 404.279.2926
