Wont start...?
Alright about 3 weeks back I started the car and it popped right away and it had a crummy idel, given the battery was disconnected for a while as well, anyways I turned it off right away because I got freaked out and was thought it was nothing. I figured the PFC just forgot the idel since the battery had been disconnected.
A week ago I was workin on the 7 Again and tried to get it to start with no avail I flooded the engine. You could see the fuel drip from the eshuast side. At that point I started to freka and said damn it is it possible I blew the engine on START UP? I figured naw...its just flooded form the last time so I'll give it a while and let the fuel dry up.
SO today I gave it a crank and it started up for about 5 seconds and then DIED! No pop nothin just death...And all after disconnectin the jumper/ charger. It spewed a ton of white smoke which I think was just fuel that was still in the engine. I tired to get it to start again after words and no luck at all....the engine flooded again....yay...So I pulled all the plugs, turned off the Fuel pump and cranked it in an attempt to deflood. Well tons of gassy mis sure came pouring out...but I think it wa still flooded....no start.....So this Tiem a took a compression test with a piston engine compression test. I looked on the forums on how to read onebut want sure....still. I held the air release button a few tmes first to see wahat happened and both rotors swooshed to 30 psi, i then let the compression build in the tester and got 110 on the rear and 90 max on the front, but they both jumped up to the number in 30psi increments...so what does this mean? Is my engine blown or is just being a stupid bitch?
