1997 Honda Accord. Not running. Need help.
Was hoping to get some input on what the problem may be. So let me explain the situation a little.
We got a car here in our shop (1997 Accord) that has lost power. The customer said there was never a problem with the car starting before this. No gradual loss of power. Nothing. Just wouldn't start the following morning. 2 of the cylinders have no compression, so we were wondering if that's what the problem is? Everything else is fine. Fuel, Spark, Timing. Its not a computer problem. At this point in time, we are unsure of what else it could be. Other than the lack of compression coming from 2 cylinders, of course.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

The low compression may be the problem of the car not running, possibly due to overheating, etc.
Here is a link with some more info.

Thats what we automatically thought over here, as well, when we found the cylinders to be off in compression. Thing is, the customer said the car never overheated. That's what HE says. But at this point, were unsure.
Again, thanks for the link. I'll check it out.
