Thanks!

Hi, I have a legacy L, 2.2 Liter 1991 with 185,000 mi. Pretty sure number 2 valve is not good. Getting a compression test to be sure. If its bad is this something I can undertake out of my garage with my Chilton manual and a set of tools? What is the technical lingo for a valve job repair in the Chilton manual, so I can read up on it. Before I undertake it is there anything else I should check out to see if it will be worth it? Any help with these questions is appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks so much for your help! I'll give those suggestions a try.

Unfortunately I don't think there are any distributor wires as this model has electronic fuel injection. I still am looking for some suggestions, I really want to do the work on this car myself, but I am at a loss to know where to go next, Please Help! thanks!

Thanks For The reply ! but yes the problems were there before any work was done...thats why we did the work ??
