O.k

The results are in:

I bought a Gunson compression tester from halfords, and after a bit of discount got it for £10.50. Never thought it would be as easy to use as it was either. Only 20 minutes and I am done.

I warmed the engine up and then took all the plugs out.

The results are:

195 190 180 195

What does everyone reacon?

Cheers

Jon

They look pretty good - I wouldn't be worried about those numbers on mine.

HI,

Done the wet compression test this morning and the compressions have gone up.

They are now:

260 255 250 270

So I need an engine rebuild pretty much!

Is this something I should be doing right away or does it not matter too much for the time being?

Could this also be explaining why the engine is so down on power?

Thanks

Jon
