I would like to have confirmation on my thoughts.
Two weeks ago, My kid calls me. At 3:30 AM!
" Dad, My car wont start". He called AAA for some help, ended up needing to be towed to a shop.
"Jule's" (shop owner) told me, "There is no spark", changed out the Ignition module no luck, Crank Sensor, no luck.
He doesn't get into anything Major, He thinks it jumped the timing chain. $87.00 later.
It now sits in a buddy's garage.
BTW, he is Monessen PA, south of Pittsburgh PA, I am in Angola NY just south of Buffalo.
Last week-end I went down there, to have a look see.
My worst fear.... no compression in 3 out of 4. and # 4 barely made it to 110 PSI. the others Not event to 60 PSI.
My son tells me all he did, Shut the car off, no revving or horsing around. Came out to start it....nothing.
Oh this is a 2005 Chevy classic with a 2.2 and just over 100K
I am thinking it is the timing chain jumped a tooth?
Is it possible for the chain to jump a tooth and be so out of time, that no signal will come from the CPS?
Or am I missing something.
Any one have any tips that could help?
the next challenge, getting the car back up here to buffalo.
On top of all of this, He graduates in the End of Sept. from here:

Having his wings clipped with no wheels near the end of school..... sucks.
Then, we got to bring him and all his creations & crap back home plus a dead car....... Sigh....I don't mind wrenching on his car... the timing sucks!!!
