Okay here is my situation, i just bought a 90 240 that has a ka24de motor in it. I bought it for a whopping 50 bucks because he said it had a blown motor which was still a great deal i think. But anyways, i checked the motor out and it had two spark plug wires blown out, not to mention it had some cheap wires, so i pulled the wires out and the plugs, and the plugs looked ok.Next i did a dry compression check and i got 0 across all the cylinders, but then i put some oil in and did the check again and got somewhere around 125 on all cylinders. So i got new wires and plugs and tried to crank it, but it just cranks and cranks and finally after a while of just cranking it finally starts! The car runs good but when i shut it of and leave it for a while it takes forever for it to start up again. So does anyone have any ideas on why it takes forever to start up??

assuming you're getting spark, check the fuel. If you're getting fuel, the 0 across the board will have something to do with it. Smells to me like worn rings.
