Default Is my compression good or bad.

Honda Civic VX 95 w/D15Z1

Did my comression test and this is what i got.
151, 152, 153, 150

Here alot of things about seafoam and finally give it a try. And now this is what i got.
165, 165, 160, 165


I don't know much about compression ratio or what the stock number suppose to be. So are these number good or bad.

your not really looking for a highger number as much as you are looking for continuity between all the cylinders, Depending on the comp ratio you could get low numbers, but since your numbers are all within 5 of each other seems fine.
As for a higher comp after seafoam that seems like it should be the opposite lower after seafoam. Per cleaning out combustion that usually bumpsthe comp up a bit.
HOw many cranks did you do, throttle =wide Open?
usually 5 or 6 cranks is sufficient for me.

Yeah I just did a comp test myself. Pull all the plugs, take out ecu fuse. Hold the throtle at WOT crank over 5 to 7 times is what I do.
