QUOTE(zipstrips @ Dec 17, 2005 - 4:05 PM) [snapback]368390[/snapback] why didnt you go back to the shop that installed the standalone ECU and let them fix it. sounds to me llike something is not right there Zipstrips, They went out of business...so they aren't really returning calls. I've gotten most of my money back, besides the dealer cost of some of the parts (like stand alone...) I redid the test and i was 90 on all of the pistons except number 4 had 60. These seem WAY to low to me. I then put a cap full of oil in each piston and waited a couple of minutes and the readings jumped up to 120....Guess that means the piston rings or bore is causing the problems, right? |

i still dont fully trust your standalone. find another dealer local or call the company directly.

yeah thats not enough compression for the engine to start and like zip said, who knows what the stand alone is programed to do. ... but like it or not, looks like you have to take it apart again .
at least you are getting fuel and spark, so that gives some good sign that the ecu is trying to do its job. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
