2001 honda civic ex brand new engine low compression
Background I bought a 2001 Honda civic EX and the engine had to be replaced due to someone grinding the cylinder sleeves with a grinder to get rid of a head gasket. I ended up paying a local machine shop to build me a new engine with new block, pistons, bearings and he also put in oversized by .020 cylinders in it, since its been below 40degrees the car has been having a really hard time starting and then when it does start it misfires until around operating temp is reached. So today i decided to do a compression check while cold to since the problems surface on cold start and heres what i got
Cylinder 1 150psi
Cylinder 2 125psi
Cylinder 3 160psi
Cylinder 4 150psi
What else should i check it seems like its not getting spark as well.
i really need help i've thrown so much money into this car i can't walk away.
