hey guys.

just went out to start my corsa after 2 weeks standing and it wont fire, at all.
seems there is no compression in the head at all, ive checked the dizzy for moisture and there was a little, which ive dried off, still nothing.
looks like its going to need a compression test.

what i wana know is, is there anything else i can try myself that may work? any advice would be real helpfull. not pleased

thanks guys

Like you say, you need a compression test really, Has it got anti-freeze in the coolant or just water?

Dose it sound like its turning overnormally and just not starting or does it just "not sound right"
