Can egr valve cause a misfire?
EGR near number three ,may be possible , leaking exhaust header possible

Egr valve is actually between #5-7 cylinders, checked compression on #3 cylinder and was 120, checked#1 it was between 135-140, Haynes manual says 150, my motor is bored 30 over, where should compression be 150 or lower?
