I have a 93 Saturn SL2 1.9L that will not start. I can hear the fuel pump running when I first switch on the key. I have also confirmed spark at the plugs. The car has 190K miles on the engine. I checked the compression at all four cylinders:
cylinder 1 reads 65 pounds
cylinder 2 reads 0
cylinder 3 reads 0
cylinder 4 reads 65 pounds
Is it possible the timing chain has slipped? If so, is it likely the engine was seriously damaged, or would it be worth-wile to try replacing the timing chain and tensioner?
