its either that my rings havent seated or the ring gaps are 2 large for na. maybe cuz its also very cold
man am i hoping for a miracle

and about the crank pulley, i remember when i would rev the car i could see that thing wobble like a mother ******...

man now im thinking of going ls/vtec
even when you crank it with the starter you will still hear a pshhh, atleast that's what i heard and it was my first time doing a compression test. what you're hearing-the pshhhh is air comming out of the three other OPEN spark plug holes. that's normal.

actually the pshh is coming from the cylinder im compressing. it releases alot of pressure before it reached its full height

Yes there is.the next time you get a chance to scope out your crank pully,you will notice that there is ruber in between the pullys.If you take off all the acc. you can actually wigle it and watch it bend a little.

they make ones filled with fluid now.Its a single pully.Its called a Fluid Damper.I think they only make it for B series though.

the reason why you are getting such low readings for the compression is cuz your hands are too slow.

when the starter turns the motor, it moves it fast enough such that the valves close b4 the air "turns around" and goes back out.

so, unless u have super powers, you will never be able to get an accurate reading by hand.
