So my boys and I headed to a car show yesterday a few miles away to "represent DSM's" and going down a hill just driving, car felt fine just toodling along, when it just died and that was the end of it. Compression is gone. I logged the drive since we were tuning idle and cruise on a new set of injectors waiting in line for a pro tune. Tell me what any of you see and suggestions. Since it was driving pretty good I didn't see the WB go fat or know why, I only saw it on the log after getting the car home. Car bites the dust at around 514 seconds on the log.
Thanks all, it's a real bummer so I could use good constructive input on testing washed out rings or other loss of compression problems. No milkshake oil, coolant still up and oil pressure was still 70 lbs when it was dead but still rolling over as I was going down a big hill. She quit rolling over as soon as I pushed in on the clutch. Starter rolls it over and obviously no compression at all. Motor might have 6k on it...maybe less.
Appreciate any and all comments, just keep them on the subject.
See log.
