6G 74 Running rough & popping thru exhaust

I have just bought a 1993 3.5 Pajero cause I wanted the bull bar. The truck is in great condition but is missing/running rough and popping thru the exhaust. The rear cylinders on the LH bank both have low compressions, about 80 psi, anyone struck this before? Blown head gasket, burnt valves, pistons? Truck has 200km on the clock wondering if I bother to patch it or at that kms would it need a total rebuild.?

HI Nic,

I did mine a couple of years ago, droped a valve. Give me a call tomorrow if you like 021 775 180. Just did up both the heads. You probably only notice it at idle?

Well I pulled the heads off, the valves are all carboned up and need to be done, priced up the gasket set, head bolts, cambelt, stuff etc
I have listed the truck on trade me
