well if you want to do the poor mans compression check, remove both leading plugs and the EGI and INJ fuses. Have someone crank the car while you listen in the engine bay. Should have 6 even "whooshes" as the compression goes past. If you have a pulse or two that sound weak then there is a serious issue.

its not right not like it was before i took the engine out.
Then I'm willing to bet something went wrong during re-installation. Did you miss any plugs? Are the injectors all plugged in right? Did any wires get damaged in the process?
when the wires to 2 of my injectors cracked, my FC ran on one rotor. Something you might want to check out.

well, coolant seal is not too bad. My engine had the front iron's seal go out.
PS: I have a rear iron available for cheap, but it might need to get lapped.
