Default Compression ?

Ive been on here before and said that my compression was 150 across. You guys said thats fine and i checked my manual and it confirmed that everything is fine. But why are most ppls reading around 200 or more and mine is 150 ?

It should be a consistent number, and you can try a different gauge, they can have different calibration. It should be a bit higher for an H22A4, but like I said, try a different compression tester if it bothers you that much. As long as you don't feel power loss/burning oil, you shouldn't worry too much about it.
