Re: did a compression test today (typer_801)

no you do a compression test when the engine is at operating temp and the throttle wide open.
if you do it cold the numbers will be lower

you're being a little ****. you have fine numbers regardless of how many miles you have. it's more important to have consistent numbers.
edit: consistent = no more than 20 between cylinders.
