Put the b18c5 in the Sol. Was running great for 2 nights. Brought it back to the mechanic to do a compression test and all went downhill.
Compression test went as follows...
1) remove wires from plugs, set them (still attatched to dist.) in engine bay
2) remove all 4 plugs, set them on a table
3) put compression tester on cylinder 4
4) mech. told me to push the clutch, and gas, and turn the key
5) repeat steps 3 & 4 for cylinders, 3, 2, and 1... got 210 all the way across
Notes that may help:
When we were doing the test the wires were arching on the strut bar and intake manifold. The night we did the compression test the car started to feel weak. The following day, I put in some 104 octane boost shit in there that I had layin around for about 6 months and wanted to rid of. It was slightly thicker then gas, but thinner then KY jelly (don't ask). I replaced my plugs and took the car for a test drive and you can feel the loss of power all the way through RPM's and feel it kinda jerk in VTEC. Like it wants to pull how it normally does, but then doesn't. Misfire?
I'm not a huge tech person, but my common sense tells me its either ignition or fuel.
HELP damnit.
