New 2jz-ge Supra Owner with Full Service History and Mint Condition! Want some help!

[Guest AlexTC]

Hello there everyone!

 

Well its been my dream since i was 8 years old and now i got it!

 

Its in very good conditions and full service history including 3 in Japan with all the paperwork.

 

Just done BG Service pack with engine flush and etc....

Done my compression test and first 5 were around 190 and n6 was 100 only.... what can be a problem???

 

 

Now thinking how to start my project with updates!

Doing engine flushes on older engines can cause problems, sometimes it's only the carbon keeping everything together lol

Hi Alex. Assuming the test was done properly, you have a compression issue. As 5 or 6 tend to be the ones to go, it probably is right.

 

I would check for symptoms of gasket failure first, but the colour of the smoke from the exhaust will be an indicator.

Do, or have a garage do, a proper leak down test whilst the engine is still hot / warm. It is far more revealing of issues than a simple compression test.

I know that but in my case it went quiet well and engine feels much better now

I will be doing a test this week to see if its still the same and then will do a leak test...

No smoke.. everything is fine so far.. cant even feel it missing... i know its hard to feel it on them but anyway
