    no white smoke at all.....perhaps they installed the pump incorrectly?...they said they let it idol for 30mins after the fix .. also replaced idler bearings, however when i started it up the idol was a bit rough

    Hmmm, sounds like a good auto repair shop to stay the hell away from. I can't believe your friends recommended such a place. Please let us know the name of the shop, so our fellow San Diego VX'ers steer clear.

    Joe Jrs on Morena Blvd.
    Now they said as of yesterdeay that there is NO water in the cylinders.. however the compression on cylinder 2 & 6 is low.
    Cylinders would have lower compression if the timing belt was installed incorrectly .. correct?..
    After all , when i got it back the first time the idol was off just a little.
    Vehicle had no problems w/ power or idle prior to going into the shop.
    Im awaiting the verdict today..
