Finally got around to checking compression on the TR3A. Here's how it fared: Love to know how this compares with other TRs. High? Low? Average? Any concerns with the 10 psi difference? I have 87mm pi

A few years ago I measured my TR4A and got: cyl dry wet 1 190 190 2 190 190 3 170 170 4 180 190 I believe your 10 PSI difference is OK, the rule is 10%, I think. Unless we were using the same compres

Don't worry about a comparison. cheapo compression gauges are great for testing relative compression among cylinders but may not be all that accurate themselves. Different gauges can give different

Hey Teri, nice hearing from you again. I thought maybe you'd gotten off the Let's quantify that by saying "a little oil". Enough oil will always raise the compression reading, even if it's valves ins

Sorry no help here. My fingers don't take kindly to hot engines so I never got a set of numbers. Besides I've played some compression games so my numbers would be different anyway. The manual gives

Where you are when you do the compression test makes a difference. I live near Denver (5280') and usually get between 125-140lb on my cars. If you are near sea level, you will get different results.

Hi List! While we are on this tread, I have a question that I've noticed. That is: I've noticed that the compression reading that others & I have received on cylinder #3 is usually the lowest. WHY? I
