yeh maybe but at the same time, think about when your going uphill, 5th gear places alot of strain on the engine and u have to downshit while first is real easy to rev through... this must mean their is more resistance in 5th gear... or something like that... u get wat i mean?

just to let you know, if you run short of money but you still need very good pistons then look into c20let engine the early version with a distributor not dispack. they come with mahle forged pistons and theyre very good. the compression is 9. something

it could be that your battery has just worn out, when was the last time you changed it?? to check the alternatoer, hook up a volt meter and measure the voltage should be close to 12v, start the engine (i don't no specifically for the daewoo) but it should jump up to around 14.5v, if it's recharging ...

i'd like to add if you decide to go for an c20let but can't find a F28 then look for an F20(which comes off a c20xe usually) and if u can't find that then look for a F18 but that has shorter ratios, which u might not like. so if theirs no F28 go for F20 oh and u need a blanking plate for that which ...
