I have 1999 Honda CRV have flashing check engine light. Checked compression on cylinder #1 it only have 25PSI. the car have 120k. Any one can help me what option I have with engine? I went a place they told me they can rebuild top of the engine for $1000. Is this a good thing to do with the car. Thanks a lot for any help.

 

Honda has a service bulliten for this. The exhaust valves in #1 have recessed into the head causing them not to close propperly.
You need to replace the head and valves.
If you wish to sell it let me know.

 

Thanks MooGoCow3. Where can I access this Bulletin? Does Honda provide fix on the problem?

 

yeah the fix is to replace the head and valves.

i have done a few of these at the shop and have found that you can usually just do a valve job and replace 1 or 2 valves and you will be fine ... i have never changed the head ...
