    1j runing rough

    1j runing rough

    any codes? my 1j did a similar thing when I first swapped it in. that was of coarse because I didn't have a map sensor. probably not your problem but codes would still help.

    what went wrong?

    ok then. I guess thats most likely my problem. I should really be more careful in the future. so if I do a compression check and the bolts are the problem I should have bad compression right?

    what went wrong?

    when I had the head off I checked for warping but I couldn't see any. I don't know to much about the deck but it looked clean and smooth. I checked for scratches but it looked good. I did reuse the stock bolts but I thought they were good for 2 or 3 times. and a good shop is always a good idea...
