I have a Motegi 2000 with 34700 miles on it and i think i have possibly dropped a valve ?
Number 4 piston has no difference when you pop the lead off. Im going to do a compression test on Monday.
I have tried new plugs and swapped leads etc
Would it be lack? It did use 400 miles last year and 700 miles yr before that.
Im wounded.
See what the compression test comes up with.
Assuming its an F20a4 since its a Motegi 2000? They can suffer from burnt valve stem seals.

Wouldn't it also be making a rattling noise if it had dropped a valve?

Yer i would have though it would be slapping. Slapping like a bare ass of Nitin.
I suspect valve stem seals, quite common on the 2.0is

Is there a spark at the plug? Is there fuel getting to the cylinder?

Going to pull the injector tomorrow and check to see if it is blocked or gummed up

Just pull the spark plug after cranking and see if there is fuel on it.
