Engine leak down/Help! 850

posted by  someone claiming to be fixit 2003 on  Fri Feb 24 07:31 CST 2006 [RELATED]

If a normal compression test shows anything at all reasonable then you should be able to at least start your engine if everything else is ok. Some people have reported running 850's with compression in the 120's which is quite low. If he was lame enough to spin your engine with the camm belt off then you have some bent valves and he owe's you a new engine.
