I just purchased a 944 that has been sitting for four years. The car has 93K miles on it, compression check shows 175-180 psi for three cylinders and 120 for one. Squirted oil in low one and it did not change, any ideas? The reason I ask here is the 944 bird board is not real active. If you want to know how good this board is, go elsewhere! You can PM me if you don't want to clog up the board, I have other questions to.

Randy, if the car sat for 4 years, you could have stuck rings on that low cylinder. You can try an oil change and putting some miles on it and see if it changes anything.
You can pressurize the cylinder with air, with both valves closed and see/hear where it's losing pressure. If it is valves, it'll leak at the intake or exhaust. If it bad rings/cylinder, it will leak into the crankcase. Good luck Ed |
