So, I'm in a similar but different situation with my 3.0 motor.

It (very likely) has a bad valve guide on #2 because the exhaust side comp is like 90% leak down, basically running on 5 cyl when I pulled it, but all other leak down numbers are right where they should be.

Am I crazy for planning to yank the left carrier, try to pull only that cylinder and fix just that?

Engine has 167k on it, only 34k on top-end rebuild.
