I am always impressed here (sadly) maybe I'll be wrong The test is suspect because the cylinders are all equal??????????????? "Pressures are: 1-240 3-240 5-220 2-200 4-190 6-210" Um, pressure should be 10% variation highest to lowest... (I will admit this is for gas but I would assume diesel...

Right in the OP "fuel is getting to the cylinders" "won't start on diesel in the manifold (never do this) or ether" So why is he getting no fire on ether and has compression numbers around 200?

Anything is possible but really... a head gasket that is blown on *every* cylinder? I don't know that seems VERY unlikely... the other thing to account for is why is the compression so low... this may not be a rebuildable core, every cylinder around 200psi? Again unless it was washed... can't...

Fair enough never ever did a compression test on a warm up engine lol always cold cause generally the problem was can not start but... 220 is very low however you could have washed the cylinders... put some oil down each glow plug hole and then turn it over plugs out. It also sounds in the...

220psi So the starter or motor is shot... like... should be over 300 at the LEAST... 400+ is even better... Not sure what "cold cranking" is when doing a compression test... unless you washed out the cylinders is what you are trying to say? Put a few drops of oil in each one and retest... but...
