2006 2.2L HHR, I noticed a rattle every time I started the engine, I replaced the timing chain tensioner to the new style as recommended, the old one came out in pieces but nothing fell down inside, I primed the new one and installed it, I then turned the engine over and it rattled and spun, I am wondering if the chain either slipped off or broke, now the engine just spins and seems to have no compression holding it back, am I screwed?
Same thing as yours. So I bought a New (used) engine and had that installed.
Old engine is junk. Good core.
Not saying your is but sounds the same. You bent your valves. Was cheaper to just swap engines with a low miler.
