So are they claiming the compression test messed the the plug wire or the guy that pulled the wire messed it up? 
Anyway, have them perform a leak down test also (you might get a new set of wires if they keep up what they're doing
) and see what the loss percentage is and where the leak is coming from.

Shows what I know. Anyway, I would try one of the other 5 if they still can't get it figured out after the tear down, it sure wouldn't hurt at this point. I would be worried about that bunch tearing my engine down to be honest with you. I hope someone gets it figured out for you.
Put the spark plugs in wrong?,..........really? Wow.

Thanks! They need it tomoro afternoon so it can have enough time to sit. Then first thing Tuesday morning they will rip the engine out. Then tear it apart. Then they will call the adjustor from Zurich an have him come look (takes 2 days) then assuming he approves the claim. They will order the parts they need (takes 3 days) then they will install the new parts or new motor. Then they will have it back to me

They only work thru a Chrysler dealer. I tried. I inured putting silicone in there would be bad. But it's Montana. They don't care. I've been here 4+ hrs now. Letting them fix what they screwed. They claim that when they did the compression test it messed up a spark plug wire. So now they are replacing that wire. Then I should be good. If it is still messed up ten I'll show them your post. Thanks for this post by the way. It will be good to have him read
