Default -->Running like crap after compression test..? Please Help!<--

-&gt;Okay... I did a compression test on my car the other day (which is a 93 civic ex coupe with a JDM ZC sohc vtec swap)..

-&gt;Did not disconnect distributor or take out any fuses just went at it.. Compression turned out excellent but when i turn the car back on it runs like crap..

-&gt;I cant go over 3500 rpm and it breaks up all throughout the rpms i do have.. Changed the plugs hoping that maybe i just fouled a plug but no..

-&gt;And also i am throwing a 4 CEL code.. And that is the crank positon sensor and i do not have one of them.. Could it be a problem with the distributor or what? I do not know.. Thank you for any help

You muffed up yur car..go0d job

Compression Test: (please read next time..its not that damn complicated)
- Normal operating temperature
- Disconnect fuel and ignition system..dont want sparks or raw fuel sitting down in the cylinder
- WOT
- Remove ALL spark plugs
- Crank the engine over 4-6 times
- Cylinders should have atleast 120psi.

You have turbo parts on the way when your car doesn't even run right? Your a genius.
