hi i have a problem my car dont want 2 start in early mornings i took it to a mechanic and he told me cause there is no compresion on my motor!!!

can any one assist me.
jetta mk2 1800 8v

0:1 Compression ratio FTW! I hear a low compression ratio is good for turbo'ing. Gooi a turbo on there ese, will give lots of compression.

Engine Overhaul..
replace pistons (not only rings)
have head done, new valves, valve guides, alles..
your problem sorted.

thanx 4 info buddy
one more thing must i resize my conrods aswell!!!!!

do i need to do my block and crank aswell!!!!

if your conrods are fine.. and your block is fine..
then all u need to have done is the block needs to be Honed.

then it's all good..

U might need a rebore, if the motor has done loads of milage... not just a honing of the bores.

U more than likely have worn rings or maybe even broken rings (easy to tell if there is white smoke them more than likely your problem) , so it's not sealing against the bore on the compression stroke.

I'm with Piper on this one if you going to open up the motor to change the rings, u might as well rebuild the whole bottom end.

Rebore, Machine the crank and balance all components, new pistons (I mean VW pistsons are so cheap) , rings bearing, water pump, oil pump

Doing all this and u will have a motor that if done properly will run strong for another 100 000km at least.

Thanx 4 the info buddy, but all the above will be done then i know i have a complete new engine,
NB:We can i get a second hand brachers 4 my car any suggestions!!!

deemo

save up the 4 grand or whatever and just change the motor

if your car has a cast iron manifold you could port it
