just did a compression test on my c20let and these were the results
cylinder 1- 10.7bar - 158psi
cylinder 2- 10.8bar- 158psi
cylinder 3- 10bar- 150 psi
cylinder 4- 9.2 bar- 140psi
i have a c20let and i belive the head gasket has gone!.....Sometimes when started it finds it really hard to idol for about 10-15secs then its fine but i took the spark plugs out and there was water all over four off them and was a little water in the intercooler am i correct ? Or could it be the TURBO ?

cyl 4 is a little low and they sometimes blow into the water jacket there,but your results look ok.
sure they were wet with water and not fuel?
if it is water you could have a cracked turbo (never seen this myself),or a cracked head (mine done this).
but if your getting water in the intercooler that sounds like it may be the turbo as the cooler is next in line to the turbo.
