Default Compression Down
Hey guys,

I had a compression test down to my block, because there was a fair bit of oil in the breathers, and turns out im down compression in 2 cylinders.

When it comes to fixing it, is it usually just the cylinders that need to be replaced? Or is there more under the surface that would need replacing too?

I heard the car running. I could be wrong but it certainly did not sound 10 sec angry.

My understanding is that it melted a piston when it leaned out on the freeway supposedly doing silly speeds.

From memory it had P Plates as well.

Seriously, a full Cosworth build and it only lasted a couple of months?

It's your fuel map, it's got a nasty hole. Tune NOS, run 9's etc etc
