My 1999 Mach Z shows good compression on all cylinders....I am fouling plug after plug.....My mechanic did a leak down test on it and says I need piston and rings.....If this is true, why is my compression showing good on all cylinders??

Thanks

A clyinder leak down test is by far a more accurate test then a comp test. What were your compression readings??
