We did that and then did a compression check...out of 4 cylinders two were @ 150 and the middle two were @ 35 and 95....we towed it home and are going to pull the head and replace the head gasket, also have the valves ground and replace the timing belt and assembly....as I realized my 1990 Festiva should have had the timing belt replaced @ 90,000miles and it has 130,000 miles....thinking it may have slipped...It's getting gas...and getting spark...so compression was the obvious next step. Annnnnd there it was. So after we do this work...We will pray that it starts.
