2002 Honda Accord SE, 4 Cylinder- Cylinder Compression issues
Hi all,
The engine light on my 2002 honda accord just went on. I took it to
the shop they replaced the spark plug but also said the compression
was low on cylinder 1. They said it was at 100lbs and should be around
150 lbs. They said the check engine light might come back on for that.
After two starts, the check engine light is back on. How concerned
should I be? It misses while idle and when it goes into the 65-70 mph
range. Whats the problem? Maybe a head gasket issue? Is it safe to
drive? How much should it cost to get fixed.. I've also noticed
slightly worse gas milage. Should that be a concern? The missing
started after my last oil change, and 3 weeks later, the check engine
light came on. Did the person who did my oil change potentially mess
up my car?
