Update #2 on my new element.
So i bought the car around 2 months ago. Drove fine for a month just put new tires on it and got it inspected. See my last post for more details on condition of the car*
2003 with 154k miles. Needs lots of love cosmetically but as a body tech it didnt bother me and i just wanted one to slowly work on and restore it and use it as a daily while i work on my del sol.
Long story short i got the dreaded misfire and after doing a valve adjustment i fixed one of the two misfires i had and did a compression test which netted me 0 compression on cylinder 4.
Ive only had the car a short time and as a tech i decided to fix it myself. The head is now off and this is what i found. Looking for any advice and part suggestions so i can bring her back to her former glory. I will clean up and restore everything i have but i am going to need this car by winter atleast.
