i had definitely considered the plugs being gapped wrong or somethin like that but a bad plug crappy brand or incorrect gap still wouldnt cause a low compression on those cylinders. so i havent even looked back into that area. i might just for good measure but like i said that shouldnt cause low compression

According to dodge, 100PSI is 'acceptable' compression.....

Have a look at the plugs. See if they tell any tales.

huh my friends who ran the compression test said that on all data it said they had to be between 125-135psi and no more than a 15% difference on any cylinder so thats what i have been going off of. maybe ill pull them today and look at them. would be great if its only somethin that simple.
