“We have a 2003 Chevrolet venture van v6 3.4l, odometer-49698. Vehicle made an odd sound when starting. This sound happened suddenly. We took it to the closest automotive repair shop their computer indicated a misfire code and they suggested changing the plugs. We opted to take the van to our mechanic. They checked the plugs and they looked brand new and were in good condition. The following description is straight from the service advisor of the automotive shop : one cylinder only has 35 PSI and there is a tapping noise in the top half of the engine. …”
