Default Cylinder pressure direct link...

Looking for a link or info to normal cylinder pressures (B series preferably) to match corresponding compression ratio. Ex: 10.5:1 = ??? psi normal pressure.

You're going to get a lot of different answers. The best way to check your compression is to look for major differences from one cylinder to the next. The actual number is not important, since all 4 cylinders aren't going to lose compression at the same rate (cyl. 2 and 3 generally wear out the fastest).

Plus some people measure compression at WOT, some don't, some remove the injector plugs, others don't, some measure on a cold engine, others on a hot engine, some use shitty HF gauges... You get the point. Everyone's got a different number. The important part is that the 4 cylinders all have roughly the same compression.
