Finally, I performed a compression test, but only as a cold test or letting the engine idle for a couple of minutes first.
At some point, I will want to do a compression test after the car has idled for about a half hour. I assume the results will differ but hopefully, with similar close proximity, yes?
But for now, I have recorded the results and would like to know if the results are good so far. I have seen from other threads how numbers can go as high as 180 or maybe more. Because my numbers appear relativily close to each other, that seems promising to me. True?
Starting with the #1 piston and then recording the rest, next in line, the results are as follows:
#1 piston = 145 lbs.
#2 piston = 151 lbs.
#3 piston = 153 lbs.
#4 piston = 149 lbs.
#5 piston = 145 lbs.
#6 piston = 144 lbs.
Anything else to know, add or advise, please feel free to do so and thanks!
