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.


Why would a 1997 Chrysler Sebring crank over but not start with a new cam sensor crank sensor and fuel filter?

Many other options. No fuel pressure, broken timing belt, computer malfunction, no spark,


Why 1996 Chevy 4.3 V6 Pu has no compression?

No compression on all cylinders, assuming pistons are moving and valves are intact - would imply bad valve timing, most likely timing chain... Several other issues can cause low compression in misc cylinders but no compression across the board without a catastrophic event such as major overheat or fuel washing cylinders, blown crank, etc - but "no compression" again, first check would be timing chain.


Why would i have No compression on a 2.0l gasoline engine Ford Escort?

Broken timing belt, timing belt jumped teeth, crank key sheared off, vvt unit lost oil prime. That is the most likely scenarios if compression is equal or nonexistant across the cylinders. Dwayne


Why would there be no spark or no fuel getting to engine on 1997 Chrysler sebring?

Possibly the crank sensor or the coil pack is dead. But with a dead crank sensor you also get no spark, no crank. No crank equals no fuel delivery.


You changed the timing chain and still won't start 1996 Chrysler sebring?

IF your previous timing chain broke, you most likely got your "cam to crank" timing out of whack. If it didn't break and it wouldn't start before you changed it, your first basic steps would be to make sure your engine is getting fuel, spark, and air.


Why would a 1993 Chevy 350 pickup engine crank but not fire?

The problem will turn out to be either fuel delivery, ignition (spark) or compression. If all three exist in the proper amounts/timing... the engine HAS to run.


Why does your Geo Metro jump and backfire and only go 35 miles an hour?

i would check cylinder compression, and definitely the timing. if you have good compression and timing is good, i have found that a bad or slipped timimgbelt or even, I've found the crank gear keyway bent or broken allowing the gear to move just enough to go out of timing. also check your distribitor cap and rotor. all of these things can cause your prob..


What are the symptoms when a crank sensor is bad in a 1996 Chrysler Sebring?

What would cause a 93 Nissan Sentra not to crank but it has spark and gas is getting to the cylinders?

In order for an internal combustion engine to operate you must have four basic components. #1. SPARK. #2. FUEL. You have these two but need to check the other two. #3. TIMING(both valve timing and spark timing). If it has a distributor and you haven't messed with it then your spark timing is probably ok. Check timing belt. It could have broke or come off. #4. COMPRESSION. You will need a cylinder compression tester to ditermine if this is your problem. Have fun! Chris


What would make a 2.7L twin cam have no compression?

"NO" compression - most likely timing belt / chain, assuming v6 2.7


How much would it cost to replace timing belt on Chrysler Sebring?
