- 2001 Mazda Protege MP3
My mazdaspeed lost its compression the other day. Numbers were like 82, 78, 60 something and 0... The motor only has 87k miles on it and the built bottom end only has 50k. The car has no throttle response when you start it and it dies shortly after. Think its the rings? Someone also said it could be my valvetrain but i dont even know where to start looking. I can a a regular protege motor locally for 600 i might just swap into it. I would like to rebuild this one for my mp3 if possible. If the rings are bad, does anyone know if I can order more from wiseco? It is also bored .020 over. Any input would be awesome guys, thank you so much
