Q: I have no compression Hyundai tiburon

asked by on September 03, 2017

6 months ago my husband got rod knock in his car. He went to a shop and they did his engine, the put new pistons and everything in it. He put everything back into the car and now there is no compression AT ALL. He has printed his car manual and they have put the timing belt on to the T so there shouldn't be any problem with that but it still won't start.
My car has a manual transmission.
