ummm.. by mechanical you mean i'd physically be able to hold the throttle cable with my finger from the bay right?
if so then yah, it's electrical. Thats one of the things i had to rewire a few months ago...
ok... results
ok ran a compression test... all cylinders were consistent w/n 5psi for each test.
cylinder 1-4 was at about 110 for 3 tests of 5-7 revolutions.
on each test it was a low or a high spike (not more than a 5 psi variance) on initial crank for only 1 or two revolutions, after that the remaining revolutions were consistent so i think those can be excused. call it 110 across the board i think.
Problem is getting a misfire code for c#4, and a camshaft position sensor code.
at this point i'm thinking my piston rings are prob. ok, and i should be more concerned about the head gasket.
input?
I don't know if this is "low" compression for my car, i'm trying to figure that out.
Enkei, pulled off the oil cap and on the cap itself there appeared to be a silver milky substance. couldn't see any of that ANYWHERE else tho, even on the metal below the cap.
U were right about the oil/water i think. happened on start up for a few minutes, then got to operating temperature and stopped smoking and dripping.
my buddy will be here a little later to help me troubleshoot.
