Hi not much of an engine guy except the obvious bolt on's alt., starter, etc...
any how I got an 88 raider 5 spd. the truck runs extremely rough I'm sure its running on two cylinders ( I dont drive it like that?) I checked the rear cylinders and got normal compression the front 2 near the radiator have 0 compression. Is it the head gasket? or a rod or link may have busted, I can get the truck to start with a strong battery and pouring a little gas down the carb but sounds sluggish and drags when turning any help would be great.

87 Raider 2.6 I4, swb stock, 5 spd.
