The other day i tested a b16a for compression and it was

195 80 200 195

well i dont know what was up ok two days later i check it again and its good to go

195 195 200 195

Then i check it again today

195 195 200 195

Do you know why it could of read bad the first time i checked it? the motor was warmed up but had not been driven in a while

 

Compression gauge might not have had a good seal in the plug well.

 

Yeah i was thinking that but i pulled it out and put it back in but still could of had a bad seal

 

cold motor?

 

Even if it's cold you would not get an 80psi......could ya??

for a B16 is kinda low. I got 190-195psi and I have 9:1 slugs.
