Ok this is for my 93 Civic Si. I figured I could find more knowledgeable people here. And its a Honda.
Ok I bought this hatch non running. When I went to turn it over it sounded like it didnt have compression on a few pistons. Well I bought it and brought it home and did a compression test from 1-4. 121-0-0-0. So I checked the cam to see if it was broke and its fine. The crank isnt broken because I dumped the clutch when I was turning it over and it lurched forward. I know for a fact the timing belt isnt broken and it was actually on time and looked to be an older timing belt. The car sat for a month after this happened. I understand if it was blown up or something why it wouldnt get compression but this is just weird. How do I check for bent valves before I rip into it???
