Low Engine Compression
Hi all! New member here and a lover of my RX-7~ 
I replaced radiator, then thermostate, and now water pump... Now I think there is a problem with the engine. When tested there is little or no compression. What is this. Do I need to rebuild the whole engine or pleaze tell me its something simple as a gasket...
The water from radiator gets as far as upper radiator hose and thats it... it expands until, I would guess, it would explode. Water is not getting to the engine.
One more thing... I need a new ragtop. Any ideas on where I may purchase one? (Mine still works but is getting ragged.)
My email address is wannabeangei@yahoo.com. I am kinda cute so I am attaching a pic of myself LOL! (Just in case it may assist me in this endeavor... ha ha ha!)
