moved my car about 4ft the other day to clean it...few hours later I had to nip out..
started car but it died after missing for a few seconds and then would not fire but was turning over faster than normal..
friend came out with his testers and said I am down on compression ..rocker cover then removed and all the valves looked ok and were moving up and down as they should..my friend said it looks like you have jumped a tooth or 2 on timing chain..
anyway took it garage who had it 2 days they said it has jumped 7 teeth...surely if it jumped 7 teeth I would of heard knocking and the valves would not move..he trying to charge me between 1500 to 2000 pound to repair..what are your thought guys...thankyou
