Unhappy Sick Neon

Oh welll I am now a proud owner of a sick neon. I currently have no compression from #2 and I am in the process of ripping the head apart. The valves seem fine.... Wish me luck!!!!

Re: Sick Neon

No I did not do a leak test.. I pulled the spark plug, placed my hand over it... NO COMPRESION... other 3 are fine... I replaced the plug also yesterday... #2 had a residue on it, and was clean ( not firing)

Re: Re: Sick Neon

looks like you need to sit your valves. Have you ever have had problem with the timming belt? couse if you bent a valve you get the same simtom.
