So I got this 92 ty a little while ago and it had low compression in 3 cylinders and after doing some digging under the hood I found the distributor was loose, so I figured that it had detonated to the point of no return. 3 cyl were good at 135,140,140 the other 3 were 40,62,85.
So I pulled the motor and tore it apart expecting to find bits and chunks but there was nothing...anywhere. Pistons are still in one piece. None of the ring lands were broken, there are no marks on the cyl walls. I can still see the cross hatch on the walls.
What do I need to look at to find my low compression issue? Not that I want to reuse the old parts ....I just want to know what caused the failure.
Anyone have any suggestions on where to look?
