Zero Compression - why?
After driving off the freeway, my '93 GT started to shake as if it had a vacuum leak. The car will then not start unless I pump the pedal.
Then it starts, the idle is VERY rough , the car would shake and the engine would die. I checked the hoses, replaced the EGR and fuel filter but the problem was still present. In order to get my Mustang to idle, I needed to increase the fuel pressure and TPS voltage. I took my car to my mechanic and he did a compression check. He found that there was ZERO compression on each cylinder on the passenger side. What would be the cause of this? Blown head gasket? Valves? As the engine is being disassembled, what more can i expect? |
