Default Compression check results...

Here's the results. I turned the motor/starter over 4 times for each one. I did it cold, engine hadn't been cranked in a day.

Cylinder #1.....210
Cylinder #2.....202
Cylinder #3.....212
Cylinder #4.....210
Cylinder #5.....205
Cylinder #6.....210
Cylinder #7.....220
Cylinder #8.....195

I was suprised that the #7 cylinder was high. Does this look okay? What about the 195 for the #8 cylinder?

there is nothing wrong with those numbers. a factory engine usually puts out around 140 to 160. anything under 90 is a dead cylinder.
