Arrow coolant, headgasket, leaking OH my.......

First post plz bare with me-
SYMPTOMS: # 4 cylinder spark plug keeps on fouling out. (.26, ngk bpr7es,). Motor Is either consuming or releasing coolant, because I have to fill it every couple days now ! There is no white smoke, and no milky oil sauce. The idle is lil more sperratic. Im now boosting 17 psi. I know I have to do a compression test!! doin it tomm, but is it true u could have good compression and still have a blown H.G???? PLz help me !!!!!

most likely the HG. and yes a HG can blow and still give good compression #'s

if the #4 plug is white and smells like coolant then it's probably blown around that cylinder
