Exclamation my engine problems, continued.

ok, like i said before i aquired a 87 fc n/a that has 93000 miles. it has been sitting for a while and has absolutely no compression on both rotors. people said that it might be flooding. i took out the plugs and saw thay they were wet. i unplugged the fuel pump and egi fuse. did the atf treatment and put the plugs back in, still no compression. i highly doubt that the motor would be dead because all of the fluids looked a-ok and the car has been taken care of. i have taken the exhaust manifold off to look for the apex seals and cant even find em??? i can even find the tips of the rotor????? what i do find is like 3 inch wide tips and not a pointy edge like what its supposed to be. thanks for reading my little rant.

Are you checking the compression correctly?. Are you sure you did the ATF treatment right?

yes, i did everything right. shen i take the leading plugs out i dont even hear any wooshing or anything when i crank, and i know the engine is turning becase i can see the rotors pass by in the exhaust ports.
