You need to do a Compression test if you havent already. Do a search there is lots of good Threads related to Engine Compression.

Well if you have bad Compression that is basicly terminal and will proberly need a rebuild in the near future.

When you rebuild your engine get your injectors cleaned and the car should be sound.

In my experiance there is no easy fix.

You need to find out the compression of your engine?

I have just had the hole bad engine thing.

Some of the symptoms are Bad starting,bad idling,loss of power etc

if you want a quick and easy test take your 2 of your plugs out (Trailing or leading) then turn it over and you should hear a even phssss sounds. If you get one loud then two quiet you have a dodgy apex.

I am not very good at explaining this kind of thing, someone else may be able to explane it better.
