If #4,#5 and #6 cylinder was 0 compression. And after he put trans fluid in the carb the compression came back in #4 and #5 cylinder. I think it is stuck rings. That is a normal problem when a vehicle didn't start in years. Maybe the cause that the compression is 0 is that the rings are stuck and the cylinder wall is erode.> From: carnuck@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: amc-list@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat, 16 Jun 2007 18:55:41 -0700> Subject: Re: [Amc-list] Update on compression problem 66 Ambo> > A: The intake or exhaust valve isn't closing all the way and no pressure can > build up.
