Shop said no compression on cylinder 6. Not a plug issue. Didn't diagnose what it specifically is. It drove home fine 25-40 mph but anything approaching highway speeds and it will vibrate.
Any engine shop that I'd actually take it to is backed up until January so I'll be selling as is.
I'd at least pull a valve cover off could be as simple as a broken valve spring an easy fix.
The shop should have been able to find out why there's no compression with a couple simple tests.
