Re: compression test results

[Gary Wilson <Gwwilson67@xxxxxxxxx>]

While the results are not too bad, they are not good either.  20 pds difference 
is a bit much.  How many miles on the engine??  The rule of thumb is each cycl 
should be with in 10 to 15 pds of each other.  To me the compression test show 
all cyclinders are lower than  what I would like to see.  You should be in the 
130 to 150 range.  Just my 2 cents worth.  I have be building engines since I 
was 18 years old.  Now almost 70.
