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.

Erik is right on the money. The only other thing I would add is make sure your tensioner rollers have been replaced with the updated ones. You did not indicate which cylinder had the low compression, I'd wager a pint of Guiness that it's the #3 cylinder. Pull the plugs and the fuel pump relay, squirt some Marvel Mystery Oil into each cylinder and crank it over for a few seconds. Put the plugs and relay back in and drive the bejesus out of it for half an hour or so. Then check your compression. I've got a lot of "hood" time with the 944's so feel free to drop me a note. Your right the bird list is fairly light on the 944 stuff, the Rennlist board is much more active.
My best, Mike D. |
