if the compression is not right, then probably, ur piston rights are wearing off. Its expected from a 13yrl old motor after all the driving and shit its been thru. If the compressions is like way way way off, then u can just get a used motor with a decent milage on it for around 100K miles or even 50K miles in some rare cases.
