Message	took the z to the shop i work at to change some tie rod ends & oil. after stopping & getting oil, starting it up & it started running horrible & smelt bad. putt putt back to the shop & it starts running normal half way there. pulled all the plugs & #4 is soaked in coolant & all the others looked good. compression tested to 140 psi in hole #4 & 120psi in 2,6 & 3. why is it so high if it’s leaking coolant ? i’ve also been having to burp the cooling system every couple of weeks so bad head gasket makes sense.
