    We cant guess at anything else, when a repair shop has actually checked your vehicle! You can post results of compression test and other conclusions you get from the shop. We will be glade to advise!

    Identical issue with my escape. Per mechanic compression readings: #4 = 75lbs, #5&6=150lbs

    75 lbs, that's not enough to fire the cylinder, in a case like this the engine will have to be torn down to fix! No way to estimate cost until it is inspected.
