hi folks -trying to figure out a weird promblem with a kia 2.0 cust says it is just stalling when going down the street 30mph...it was starting back up but now just turns over ...getting spark....fuel ...and timing belt is good....weird thing is it will sometimes start if cranked long enough it kinda goes faster faster faster till it will run but that happens rarely...month ago it had full tune up wires plugs air and fuel filter oil change...now we are doing a water pump so while the fronts off the motor iam asking for some advice....thanks crank.it

hi guys- no guesses on the kia huh.....well got the verdict back from my computer buddy and he said it has no compression in any cylinders...well not any but 35 75 50 45 thats like a junk motor so now cust has to decide if its a rebuilt motor install or cut their loss and junk it....me iam for the latter.cant see throwing a 1000 into a truck you bought for 1500....crank.it
