They were sold under the Dodge and Plymouth names here in the US until 1983 when Mitsubishi started selling under their own name. 1982 was the last year for Plymouth badged Mitsus.

Compression off my parts store gauge.
#1 178
#2 165
#3 178
#4 170

Plugs on 1,3,and 4 were identical grayish white and #2 the porcelain was grayish but the end was wet. Couldn't really smell if it was gas

Been following this for a bit now,

No need to buy a 'jet' valve elimination kit...$$$...,
IF, repeat, IF #2 'auxiliary valve' (aftermarket designation)
is the root concern, buy ONE assembly from the links already listed,
install, & simply remove the adjusters from ALL intake rocker arms.
Poof, no more MCA interference with Your root problem.

With Humble Respects I must ask, have You verified the physical Cam/Crank timing ???
Not just looked at...Your already posted " its got a new #1 timing belt".

If I missed the update I apologize Sir, Thx.

Yes sir, timing verified today for the 3rd time. I was thinkin about pulling the adjusters out
