hey all,
some of you guys know and some of you have probably worked it out that i bought SI's engine off him.
after struggling for so long, managed to get it in and fired up today (good news) but it seems like its missing (bad news)
did a compression test on it when cold and got:
1st - 147
2nd - 132
3rd - 118
4th - 147
it sounds very bad as you can imagine, sounds like my old popped one, had Andy (Mr GTIR) on the phone and he wasnt impressed with the sound either.
just changing over the ignition bits and will get back some more hot engine compression results.
anyone shed some light on this for me please, alots gone into getting that engine, putting it in so i really need to get it running right.
HELP!!!
