ok i just changed the head gasket on my 95 - g20 and i believe the timing is aligned right, but i still have low compression on cyl. 1-3 and #4 reads twice as much ... 1-3 pressure is 25 lbs. psi-- and # 4 is 50 lbs. psi...i know i torqued the head down right, would missed timing effect compression? if not what else could it be?Thanks

First off, why did you changed the head gasket? What problems did you have before the head gasket replacement? Low compression is normally not caused by timing.
