i did a compressiong test like the fsm told me. i pulled both trailling plugs and put the tester in #1. i got 90 psi's with 3 good bounces. then i put it in the #2 with #1 plug still removed. the gauge did not even budge. the motor has 90k miles on it. am i doing something wrong. any help would be great

 

bump for quick help

 

i need help realy bad please help

 

With no tester in the hole in #2, can you hear/feel and air pulses coming out? If not, sorry, rebuild time.

Kevins the least expensive and one of the very best. And yes, I'm SUCKING UP 'cause once again he's gonna have to bail me out on my clutch problem!

 

i can hear and feel air comming out but its not strong like the #1. Also tha car has been sitting since october 03. i bought it off a guy for real cheep and drove it home. it was like the little engine that could. is there any way something else could be wrong

 

ummm does the engine run? does it run smoothly? or does it seem like its running on 1 rotor?

 

it runs smooth. it has trouble idleing and it feels like it has a huge power loss. im changing the oil now it is thin with a good amount of gas in it. this car is absolutly perfect except for the poor performance and idle. please dont tell me i need an engine

 

how could the engine be shot after 90k? i mean the car looks like it was takin care of? could it be cause it sat or crappy oil??

 

They guy could have beat the hell out of the motor, my motor went with only 98k miles on it, and the interior and exterior was in really good shape.

 

ok, thanks for the help guys. guess im going to look for a rebuild

 

when I bought the first jspec, it didnt have any comp on the second rotor.... the guy said that when he picked the engine he did a comp test and it had good comp... he said that the seals get stuck from sitting too long and that carbon holds the seals in.... I personally never seen a motor loose 100% comp from sitting for a while...he quickly gave me another motor so I didnt complain at all...
