No compression in cylinder
So it seems that 1 of my cylinders has died on my 97 s10. Its the cylinder closest to the firewall to the drivers side.
Car drives well on 5 and the techs looking at it says its to expensive to rebuild.. What are the main causes of this ****? |
Valve problems, blown head gasket, bad rings, etc...

Depends on the source of the problem and how bad the compression was on that cylinder. A second opinion wouldn't hurt.

ok now another mechanic has looked at it
apparently i have compression about 8kg in the one cylinder thats not working. compression was abit uneven in the rest of the cylinders, 3 with 11kg and 1 with 6 and 2 with 8. he thinks changing the ignition parts will make it work :) he said it looked like stuff has been growing in there for years... hehe hope to get her back early next week, working 100%! :) |
