The car overheated from a cracked radiator and I need to know if the compression test results #1-120psi #2-70psi #3-90psi and #4-120psi indicate engine damage, because the mechanic I dealt with said it was impossible to determine and he said while it was outside the ideal 10% range it was probably ok but impossible to know for sure. They performed a wet test on #2 and said pressure went up from 70 to 90psi. I think he mislead me by saying while the test results were not ideal they did not mean there was engine damage either. He said the radiator could be repaired and I would need to keep on eye on the temperature. I was worried about damage to a head gasket he said he did not think so and after I pressed him on it he said if anything there may have been damage to a piston ring because of the wet test result on #2. I had the radiator repaired because of the way he interpreted the results to me and a few days the later the car refuses to turn over. It doesnt sound like a battery issue
