Umm, okay. It's almost been 2 years, and I re-discovered my account. Basically, I got the new engine in, replaced the plastics, and racks, and I have no compression... WTF? And I'm still working on getting the timing right... So. Yeah.

Helluva way to bump, huh?

No compression on new engine?
Hope you will get the compression back after correcting the cam timing.

Btw, where did you get the new engine?
