120 compression with another 0 compression is in "might as well" full rebuild territory. |

Copied this from one of my other posts: Personally, I'd recommend this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Geo-Metro-Pontiac-Chevrolet-1-0L-G10-Engine-Rebuild-Kit-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQfitsZMakeQ3aGeoQ7cModelQ3aMetroQQhashZitem3cb537124fQQitemZ260738323023QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories $233 full rebuild kit, additionally pick up a felpro head gasket, the kit comes with one, but it has the small oil holes, the felpro is usually made right. Pick up 3 exhaust valves, the SS ones from 3tech are the best, but you can pick up some normal ones on ebay for ~$5-$10 ea. Grab a felpro head gasket at advance auto using this coupon, link: $35 off $85 And also pick up some plugs/wires/dist cap/rotor whatever else you'll need for the rebuild to get to $85 ![]() I'd also recommend copper gasket spray (pick it up at advance auto) and put it on both sides of all gaskets including the head gasket, never had a gasket that was sprayed leak on me You'll also need some RTV either red or ultra black for the oil pan, and on the outside mating surface of the cam/crank seals.

Oh yeah! Full meal deal overhaul! I counted 5 Q&D overhauls before I visited the machine shop! Well worth the time and money in the long run, especially with the price of gasoline . . .

after I pulled the manifolds off the intake looked like it was plugged completely in the EGR passage with carbon. |

Not surprising. After 21 years, you're likely to find some diamonds in there. Sounds like you're on your way to getting it fixed! |
