The End
Well there goes that. My car made some explosion noise and then it wouldn't start anymore. I got it home via tow truck. I checked the FI and it injects fuel quite nicely. Then I checked the spark on the spark plugs and it was fine. So in theory it should fire and run. But it doesn't. My compression seems to be at around 3, but I have reason to believe that my compression meter thingy is faulty, because I ran it over. I finally got it to run (very horribly) and then it stopped again. I'm guessing my engine has seized. It makes me want to cry.
Back to walking.

Hello
Check for a vacuum leak and if you have a L-Jetronic then check if the barndoor airflap is working correct. Maybe it is jamed full open or full shut or the axle is lose.
