Where can you get almost all the information for a 1987 Honda Civic Si like firing order compression and timing etc?

Firing order is 1-3-4-2 and the distributor rotates clockwise. Buy a repair manual. It is available in almost all the auto parts store..It'll give all the info from bumper to bumper....

Can low compression affect timing?
No. Low compression does not effect timing but timing can affect compression.
1996 Chevrolet 4.3 v-6 timing mark aligned and rotor to no1 no firing white dot just ahead of timing mark is this of any importance to timing?
make sure you timed no 1 on compression stroke
Why is an engine times?
Engine timing is the way that the spark is synchronized to the end of the compression stroke of the piston. Firing early will fight against the engine's normal movement and firing late will reduce power to the wheels.
Can a retarded engine cause low compression?
If the timing is retarded due to cam and crank timing, the answer is YES. If it is due to distributor or ignition timing NO. Compression is produced mechanically when all the valves are closed during the compression stroke of the piston. If all is well (rings and valves), you should achieve optimal compression from the engine. Almost all gasoline engines require a least 80 psi to fire the cylinder.
What is the timing for 1991 gmc 1500 5.7?
dot to dot on timing chain with number 1 cyl on compression stroke firing order is 18436572 with a timing light you need to unplug little brown wire on firewall set at zero then plug wire back up
What does the abbreviation BTDC stand for?
Before top dead center. Used in auto ignition repair processes of timing the firing of the spark plug to the preferred position of the cyclinders on the compression stroke.
What is the timing and firing order of 998 cc engine?
Timing would depend on the application of the motor. Some 998cc engine would have a higher compression than others and this would determine what the ignition timing should be. Normally it would be between 4 and 12 degrees BTDC. The firing order is easier. It's 1 - 3 -4 -2 Clylinder 1 is at the front (fan) end of the engine.
No compression after changing timing belt?
The most common cause for no compression after a timing belt change is improper timing. Make sure that tdc is set correctly, and is not 180 degrees out of sync.
If the timing belt brakes on a 97 2.0 escort will it ruin the engine?
No the engine isn't ruined. It just wont run because ist is now out of time. The timing belts job is to keep the pistons and compression in line with the firing order of the spark plugs. when the the timing belt is on the car the plug fires when the piston is in the highest position in the cylinder. If the belt is broke then the plug could be firing when the piston is in the lowest position therefore not creating any compression and not allowing the car to crank. You're ok you just need a new belt and put back in time.
How do you prohibit a car from backfiring?
Hey John==Without knowing what you have, it is strictly guessing. Check the firing order. Make sure the compression is ok on the engine. GoodluckJoe
350 Chevy when the timing mark are line up what piston is firing?
Answering "http://wiki.answers.com/Q/350_chevy_when_the_timing_mark_are_line_up_what_piston_is_firing" If you are putting a chain and gears on the right way, then #1 has just fired on the compression stroke
Why won't a 1978 Corvette idle?
Check the spark. If that's good check compression and timing. Check the spark. If that's good check compression and timing.
