    depending on whats cuasing the leakage it can be either a valve/head rebuild or it may be the rings(bottom end rebuild) if you can afford a full rebuild that would be ideal.

    whomever did the test should be able to tell you where the leakage was going. its very simple to check whislt doing the test.
    once you know that, you can work out options
    we have rebuilt engines starting at $3850 exchange
