	Well, as you all know, I have had heaps of troubles with my car, and it may have been the mechanics fault. The engine finally died, with loss compression in 2 cylinders, and the car not starting. Brought to a new mechanic (Unique Automotive, Vilawood!), he says th sump was rubbing against the x member, and the motor, was "squashing" the heater hose against the firewall, causing a kink. Can this, or di t he cause the Motor to loos compression? I also heard, it can cause blown HG.
