I bought a 2000 honda civic SiR (Can)US Si) the motor is the b16a2 and at this time honda performed a compression resulting 185-185-180-185 (psi) the mecano said this is almost perfect .. at this time i was on the full honda warranty .. and then 1 month after.. i realized that it's leaking or burning like..1 L or more.. of motor oil.. in 1000km (600 miles) so.. there is a problem.. because the motor burn a lot of oil.. but the inspection was.. ahh it"s perfect !! buy it ! :s
now honda say ahhh... you are on the extended warranty you need all receipt of oil change since the god creation wtf!?

what is the NORMAL compression in PSI for a 2000 b16a2 motor with 90 000KM (54 000Miles) ?? 220psi or.. less???

 

thats perfect compression, thats where its suppose to be and also in compression its not always about the compression its about consitancy

 

yeah those numbers are good

compression is always different in every car... atmospheric changes, how high from sea level/below sea level

its never the same as someone elses really...

as long as your compression is the same across each piston your fine.. and yours are fine.. 185's with one 180.. thats fine

 

185 is perfect compression for a b16a2? its suppose to be a high compression engine..

 

well ok thank you, that's seam to bo a good explanation.. so.. compression ring are ok.. so the leak can be another ring on piston.. maybe

 

oil rings have nothing to do with compression. u can have perfect compression and a worn oil ring, a compression test wont show it
