Is there engine compression on a 1991 Mercury Sable 305 engine with the timing chain broken?

You may have compression on any cylinder where the valves happen to be closed, but you will not have compression on all cylinders. 1991 Sable does not have a 305 engine.

Why their is no compression in engine when you try to star?
Usually that is a sign of a broken timing belt or timing chain.
How can you tell if your timing belt is broken on a mercury villager?
If the timing belt was broken, obviously the engine would not run. If you crank the engine and the distributor does not turn, that would be a good sign.
How do know if your timing chain is broken on a 1999 Chevy truck 1500?
The engine would not run. The engine would lack compression.
How do you determine if the engine has broken a timing belt?
Your valves will bend and the vehicle will be inoperable/undriveable. If the engine is a non-interferance engine, the valves won't get bent. You could remove the timing belt cover and see with your eyes if the belt is broken. A compression test will also give you a clue, the compression will be 0 in all cylinders.
What causes no compression on 2.7 Liter Chrysler engine?
Broken cam or timing chain is the most likely cause.
How can you tell if your 2000 mercury villager is turning over with a broken timing belt?
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO TURN THE ENGINE OVER IF YOU SUSPECT A BROKEN TIMING BELT !!!!!! If you have, you already have more problems than a broken timing belt. Remove the upper timing belt cover and physically look at the timing belt.
On a 2002 Chrysler sebring If the 2.7 engine turns over but seems to have no compression what might be the problem?
A broken timing chain is possible.
On a 94 mercury tracer with a 1.9L engine if the timing belt slipped a tooth will there be engine noise?
No, there will not be engine noise, but you may notice a decrease in engine performance. The 1.9 liter engine is a freewheeling engine which is not damaged by incorrect camshaft timing or even by a broken timing belt.

Why is distributor in Mercury Villager not turning?
A couple thing come to mind. Broken timing belt, broken camshaft, broken distributor shaft. Are you seeing the trend here?? I think your engine is BROKEN.
What would cause no compression when starting the a car?
Either your timing belt is stripped or broken. In order to have compression the camshaft and valves need to be in time with the crankshaft. If it has a distributor cap then remove it and have someone crank the engine. If the rotor does not turn then the timing belt is bad.
What causes the engine to lose compression in all 4 cylinders on a 1992 Stanza XE sedan with only 162000 miles?
