    1995 Toyota Corolla won't start 1.8 auto trans

    Cylinders 1, 2, & 3 went from 30 to 60 on the wet compression test. The leak down test proved that the intake valves on those three cylinders were leaking. So my guess is carbon build up on those three cylinders. Now is it a matter of refurbishing the head or is there more to that? I will start...

    Sorry it was 195 all across when it ran great. Then when it crapped out it measured 20-30 from 1-3 and four was still 195. I will do a wet test then a leakage test on Saturday. I'll post the results...

    Yes, however there is no adjustment on the distributor. I believe its done with the ECM. I'm waiting on a known good ECM to try in the car before I purchase a new one. Don't like spending $ on parts that could be good.

    My car was starting to miss a little so I decided to change plugs and that's when all hell broke. After changing the plugs it started up fine and ran good. I tried to back it up then it ran rough and died. Since then I replace distributor, wires, fuel pump and starter all of which were bad or...
