Ok so i found this badas* 426ex on craigslist and i am going to buy it.
He says that "the lower headgasket has a break in the right side of it and it loses compression, and leaks a little bit of oil.."
I didnt think the gasket under the jug (i am assuming thats what he means by the lower headgasket because there shouldnt be any oil getting by the headgasket right?) should have anything to do with compression.
But he did say on the right side and thats where the timing chain is.. Idk i just wanted to get a 2nd or 3rd opinion on this.
And when i replace this gasket (going to go ahead and buy a top end gasket kit) will i have to go ahead and replace the timing chain?
Thanks guys.
