Please Help!! Newby with Compression ?????
I am in the middle of swapping out a d16y8 1.6L vtec with a d16y7 bottom with y8 head (money, time and availability of engines in my area is why I am doing this). The motor had compression across all cylinders of 175 - now when the engine is all put together and in the car there is very little to non-existant compression and the car tries to start but won't run. What could be wrong??? It has a new timing belt, new seals, new plugs, new wires etc and my mechanic is stumped
