Well! I just got the call from the mechanic, they pulled the valve cover and all the valves were good.
Forced air into the #5 cylinder and it came out the dipstick.... either rings are shot or theres a hole in the piston.
I'm gonna go get it today and do my own checks on it tomorrow to make sure.
Damn shame, she only had it 2 months, and it was bought from a friend who got it new, ran perfect the whole time he had it, and when I got it, he feels terrible, even came over and helped me work on it on Thanksgiving when the problems started.
Other than the motor the thing is damn nice, custom wheels, nice stereo system and all.... but its not work dumping 2-3k into for a new motor. I may try to sell it or part it out, dunno yet.
