I kinda have an urgent question and call on the forgiveness and grace of the admins and other members for any flaws in this thread...
I have an 04 GT M/T with 130,000 miles (original motor) and got a compression test and failed. Actually pretty badly, face three of rotor 1 is at 56 psi, with about 66-68 on the other two faces. Rotor two is at 70-73 psi. So my average compression being around 66 psi many would condemn the motor and rebuild it or replace it.
But here is where my problem is, i am experiencing NO problems starting hot (have upgraded starter from 06 models), have NO idling issues or stalling, or major power loss through the gears and have actually been getting great gas mileage (about 18 in town with regular redlines), and no abnormal oil consumption.
Bottom line is, I don't have money for replacement or anything right now so i need this to live until i have money for some options and i need honest opinions from you awesome people!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
also...i'm curious what you all think about the test results given i have absolutely no issues with the motor but the numbers (as well as mazda techs) suggest it should be just limping around right now on it's last mile.
Thanks again!
