If the compression is low its not good they rent a compression tester at auto zone. Have him do a compression test give me the results of all cylinders. Atleast we can rule out a easy thing to test.

He will do the compression test. I really appreciate all your help. You guys are great. Thanks for taking the time to answer.
We had already spent about $200.00 trying to solve the problem and he owns a Nappa store.

Napa doesnt rent tools they only sell them so to save some money I would rent the compression tester at auto zone. Let me know what you find.

I will let you know and once again thanks so much. This is the third Saturn I've owned. Never had any problems before now with Saturns. Kind of undecided now if I want to keep it since they stopped making them though. Hope you have a great afternoon.
