Okay I had to replace my head on my ka because the exhaust cam broke and chewed my head up. New head gasket, plugs wires, distributor. I aligned the upper chain to TDC and made sure the marks were correct. I went to start the car, nothing. I did a compression check and got about 50 out of all cylinders. Can anyone help me?
