2000 Sunfire GT

I just bought a 2000 Sunfire GT just over three months ago...used. Me being a girl, thought it ran fine. SO then my engine light comes on. I get it scanned and a cylinder is misfiring...compression test is done 85, 115, 185, 185. Bad news...I get a second opinion...he says the same thing...replace the engine. He said he could hear right away that it sounded like shit. Sucks to be me.

Is it worth it to try that engine restore stuff...or is that just a temporary fix anyways. My buddy(who's a mechanic) says it doesn't accelerate like it should...it's been like that since I bought it.

Or should I just got get the loan and get a whole new engine and stop thinking about it?

turns out it's a burnt valve and I need a new head
Found a cheap shop $1300 :)
