Red face Blew rotor or seals

first like to say sorry if you get this question everyday and ****, i know its very anoying because newbs do it on the board for my daily driver everyday ... K now my question i need to know if i blew my rotor and my engine needs a rebuild or if i need seals. The car is pretty hard to turn on and wont idle for crap, it will just turn off unless over 1.5k RMP'S. One off the rotors has no compression and i know that for sure. Please anyone any help you can give me will be helpful even if your just ganna send me to another thread. I did search found somthing but dont wanna bring the thread back from the dead and maybe even get it closed. BTW the car is a 89 tII and has bout 122k miles.

IF you know for sure that it has lost compression on one rotor, then it will require a rebuild, which is the same thing as needing seals. Classic blown engine/no compression on one rotor symptoms are hard galloping starts, runs like a lawnmower, NO power(floor the gas, actuate the clutch to move), adn a lot of backfiring and fuel stink form exhaust.

IF you decide to fix it keep in mind that I rebuild engines starting at $1200 for turbo engines. check out http://hypntyz.rx7life.com/rebuildpage.htm
email me in private if interested hypntyz@charter.net

good luck
