The Workshop Manual gives the figure - it's 160 psi. That's for an 18GD, GG, GF and GH engine, high compression version (8.8 to 1). Bill

My reference books show that 18GK engines came originally with 8.75:1 compression ratio so they should have had a cylinder cranking compression around 160 p.s.i. As to a conversion to European figur

160 psi equals 10.88 atmospheres or 11.03 bars or 325 "Hg or 8274 mm Hg (of course better known as Tors) or 1103 Kilo Pascals. Any guesses which of the above we have on our tire filling stations up h

Bingo, it is Ole Pascal or Kilo Pascal -- or is it Newtons per hundred square kilometers. I really don't remember and don't care anymore. Most of the pumps have been defaced. Here in English Ontario
