Also, I was thinking of contacting the BBB.... suggestions? not really sure how the best way to go about this is. I also had a claim open with NNA so i could call them back as well.
with these motors its hard to perform a compression test because the throttle boddies need to be wide open to get a good reading and the way ours work there not until the car actually is runing they stay closed no matter what on start up then fully open and allow the cam actuators to control revs . the only way to get good accurate numbers on these cars is to leak down them ..
