Default Compression Test Numbers ... Help.

#1 (driver side) - 210
#2 - 230
#3 - 213
#4 (passenger side) - 211

Is this okay ... why is #2 so much higher?

did u do this after the car was at normal opertaing temp. How long has it been since your last valve adjustment. Thse could contribute to in accurate compression test number. Try the test at least twice. Also a compression test will only tell you if there might be anything wrong. A leakdown test will lead you to the actual problem.

I got (in no particular order):

225, 225, 219, 211

I forgot which number was for which cylinder (I got it written down somewhere but I'm too lazy to look).

No ... the first time, the car was cold. So, I let the car warm up to operating temp and re-tested the compression. This time, all the cylinders tested between 220 & 225. All is well
