It\'s a normal compression tester so not one that tests each face.

Also does anyone think the compressions are ok?

Quote from: grinder;857902you can use a ATF trick if they are stuck ( auto trans fluid )

You can inject 5mm into each spark plug , leave it ( maybe overnight ) , the i think you have to start it .. it WILL produce clouds of smoke though

The ATF breaks down any carbon build up in the housings etc...

Won\'t there be 1 tip left untouched if you put it in the spark holes? Or put it in then turn it over?

Thanks guys will give it a try.

Also I heard there is a way to get slightly better psi from rotors if you chuck something in there? Probably hasn\'t been on the road for 10 years.

So I got the fc started today, however idle is rough and tries to stall. We had to put separate wires to the coils to get power to them so not sure what\'s up with that.

Done a compression test and front rotor is just under 90 psi and rear is 75 psi. Not great but I don\'t think it\'s that bad.

My question is why does it idle so bad ad seems to have low down miss fire then as you build revs it clears?

Looking to move this on as a non runner, as really want another skyline.

It\'s a complete car in black rust free and reasonably tidy. I polished a rear quarter with some jml style polish and paint was like new. Arches are rust free aswell which I think is rare.

The car has run before but before I started it changed plugs, oil, and oil filter but will not fire. More investigation showed no spark and not sure if there is power going to the leads. We have already put in a new fuel pump.

It has no mot or tax but as far as I can gather it will need brakes and a exhaust to get it through but can\'t be 100%. Both these parts I have sourced from mazdarotoryclub but haven\'t purchased them.

In addition I do have a set if coilovers for it and some dishy wheels. Also some braided lines.

If you want the car and a the additional bits I would like £1000.

If you want just the car £500.

I can deliver this for £1.20 per mile no return. Eg you live 100 miles away £120. Car based in gillingham Dorset.

Pics will follow.

Can anyone please have a quick look in there engine bay and draw a quick pic?

Cheers buddy, however I have had a good look through and there still doesn\'t seem to be a description or diagram of where they go.

Basically it won\'t start but has started with previous owner however I don\'t know if he changed the plugs and put them on the plugs.

Oh non turbo by the way.
#15
Does anyone have a diagram for ignition lead positions as I have a feeling mine have been mixed up?

Many thanks!
