97 318i. as the title states my cylinder 4 is totally dead, no change at all when i pull the wire. this is after a fresh rebuild. compression is 210 across the board, ill update with a vid soon. it smokes a lot which i attribute to a recently replace ccv, so old oil still burning off, but it puffs at idle as well, and that smoke looks more like coolant. i am praying someone will have something else this could be other than a cracked coolant jacket or something serious like that.
I get cyl 4 misfire code obviousely, a o2 sensor bank 1 sensor 1 confirmed code, and intermittent misfire p0300.
Note: the fuel is 5 years old, i picked this car up from someone who had it sitting that long and i know that cant help, but it doesnt really explain why only cyl 4 would be dead.
