probably head gasket. pm me if you are in the 757 area. I can do a compression test for you and if you want I can replace the headgasket.

Not positive what it should be for that motor probably around 180ish. Big thing you are looking for is that it is close to the same for all four cylinders.

compression should be around 200-210.

if it heats up when you get on it, sounds like head lift, or cylinder walk.

anything done to the engine? turbo?
