swap is done:
So my mechanic got the swap done on friday while i was at school. When i got out i stopped by and he tells me its ready to go, so i payed him $$$ for the labor.. I started the car and it wont, tryied again and no luck! no way this cant be happening!
He had me keep cranking the car over and over as he tries to adjust the CAS in different position and still WONT start.
*I asked him if timing was set right, he says yes
*There seems to be spark from plugs
[came back the next day..]
*He tells me that he even check the fuel pressure on the lines and they were good.
*Then checked the plugs and noticed they were soaked with fuel.
*Checked the compression and there was 0psi compression on cyl. #'s 1,3,4 and only 20psi on cyl. #2 (he even showed me) not good
now im pissed and he blames that the motor i got was bad. watever man.
Now what is wrong!? help!
