what PSI should each cylinder show when i test?

i have a 96 prelude with a f22a unkown amount of miles (over 100k probly around 160k)

 

come on

 

90psi on all 4 ok?

 

f22a1 on my accord got 190-200psi. did u crank the engine like 3-4 times without any fuel going into the engine???

 

na, i just started it once each time and let it run for a few sec - am i supposed to rev it or somthin?

how am i supposed to test it with no fuel going to the engine?

i dont know much..

so i gota cut the fuel off and then turn it over a few times? where s a good place to cut off the fuel?

 

holly **** dude, u really dont know what the freak u're doin!!!!

1. On your passenger side in the engine bay, take out the ECU fuse.
2. Take out 1 spark plug/wire.
3. Get your compression tool in the sparkplug hole.
4. Crank your engine 4 times and their's your compression.

 

i took out all my plugs and wires but whatever way both work better then the fucked up way you where trying it did you not look up how to do a compression test my tester had directions come with it even

 

Ok Here we go:

Remove fuel injector or fuel fuse....
remove spark plugs
insert tester
have someone try starting it at WOT and let it crank 3-4 times
Repeat for cylinders 2-4 .

Mind you this is a crude write up but if you search and read your directions thats what it should say....I would guess compression tests should be in the 180's-200's psi (based off of what I have read on here )

 

actually i just found a compression tester in my garage behind some **** and figure i'd test it seeing as how i have half my junkyard turbo setup.. i pretty much do everything by books and what i read on here and there rest is drunken guessing
