Crank but no start

Asked by Dpar1 Nov 11, 2018 at 11:18 PM about the 2005 Subaru Legacy 2.5i Limited Wagon AWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I did an engine swap. It will crank but will not start.
I used all sensors and brand new timing kit from
the old motor. There were no problems other than
loosing compression in cylinder 1. What could I
have forgot or could be wrong

Did you swap an engine from an older or newer car? If so did you swap the ECU with it?

I used an older motor. But only the bottom end block and heads. All electronics and intake came from the original motor. Egr valve was the only component that wouldn’t work. Because 02 didn’t have egr

Why do you not have compression in one cylinder? Bent valve from cam timing off?
