i have a 92 civic cx hatch with a 94 d16z6 with 140,XXX on the motor

i did a compression test did it 3 times on all cylinders with the fuse for the ecu unplugged and the dizzy unplugged at wot

118-127-123-148

are those numbers okay??

i thought it was supposed to be a bit higher
any info would be great

 

Those numbers look pretty low... time for a rebuild?

 

your looking for even numbers across teh board.

You don't have even numbers. Does it smoke at all?

 

as long they are all within 5PSI of each other it is okay... but those have highs and lows with a difference of 30 PSI .... i would say time for a rebuild.

my compression was 184-183-187-185 for a b18c low compression.

 

yeah it burns about a quart every 4-700 miles depending on how hard i drive it

i can get single cam motors for 300 should i just buy another one, or spend the money in p29 88-89 integra pistons and rings?

 

that means your piston rings are shot

i had a headgasket problem with my cx and still had 150psi on all 4

 

Wow, those numbers are way too low. Looks like it's time for a new motor or a rebuild.

Actually is should be +/- 20psi

consistency is always key....you have some variation there i would definitely be concerned about.
