low compression
low compression
so i recently purchased my 2.2cl and im about to go on a cross country drive to see my parents for thanksgiving. (my first solo trip ever since im only 16) and from the vehicle check i found out a couple things. one that my right front c/v shaft (boot) is cracked. which im getting fixed asap. and two im running low compresion in two of my four cylinders.
cyl 1-130
cyl 2-125
cyl 3-122
cyl 4-120
is their a relitively cheap way to fix the compression issue?
thanks in advance!

Hate to be the bearer of bad news but I think the minimum value for compression is about 135 PSI. Compression is low in all four cylinders. There is no cheap or easy fix for that.

Just out of curiosity... How did you go about checking the compression? How many times did you crank it on each cylinder?
Go back and retest it, and right down the symptoms, Here is a good write up on how to preform a compression test, and tell what is the likley cause of your issue. I found it on super honda acura today

Read through that and it will tell you how to do the test and tell what your issue is at the same time
Hope it helps man!!
