Talking Re: Engine cranks; no compression?
Just me again, is it possible that the lifters have blead down and lost their oil charge? That gives you no real compression and sounds similar to the condition here. WOuld need to verify proper oil pressure and crank till the lifters pick up their oil charge, best done with one of the plugs out to save starter stress. Have to confirm oil pressure and rotate engine a hundred revs to test his theory. Seen this happen, might be easy to try before pulling engine apart. WDY
