Message Starting out from a traffic light the other day and the engine just stopped, after doing troubleshooting we looked at the t-belt and it was off. Tensioner stud broke. Got a new tensioner, t-belt etc. and put it all back together. #5 was not firing, compression checked ok, consistent with previous tests. All other cylinders firing ok. Working with Seb at SZ, switched out PTU, CAS, ECU, Coil Pack, brand new Injector, traced the wires for continuity.

Could the valves be damaged on just one cylinder even though the compression seems ok? Not sure what else to check, should I pull the heads and inspect Put new ones on? Have 2 extra sets of heads available.
