Hi there, I agree that you should realy have a presher test done but its not like the old days where every time you have a problem with the engine you have to get out the spanners, (I recieve no profit from what I will tell you) from what you are saying the problem is not that bad at the moment, there are plenty of additives on the market that will solve your problem,
please trust me on this have a look on ebay you will find what you need, good luck I only try to help as money is tite these days.
