    Factory Warranty runs out on Monday

    Sounds like a new concept to me... do you do this with your cars too?

    I would check the Cam Chain for proper alignment... it could just be that since the Mech did not seem to Check it the last time... One or Two teeth Off could just be your problem!

    Here are the Compression Numbers from the Manual: Compression pressure (at sea level) Minimum 1,390 kPa (13.9 kg/cm2, 198 psi) Standard 1,600 kPa (16.0 kg/cm2, 228 psi) Maximum 1,790 kPa (17.9 kg/cm2, 255 psi) Hope it works out to something more simples and less expensive for you.

    Yes, it would Start (and they have) even with 1-2 teeth off. Just something else less distasterous or expensive to consider for your comprehensive evaluation. Your cylinder compression numbers were just too evenly too low and it usually does not happen like this.

    Could it be that the Valves are Not Seating Properly... this would give bad numbers as well.
