Does anyone have any thoughts on my compression
readings below?   My Haynes manual says to expect
about 175 lbs and I'm lower (but consistently lower).

How long can I wait for a rebuild is my main concern.

#1-  147 lbs
#2-  150 lbs
#3-  149 lbs
#4-  151 lbs
#5-  148 lbs
#6-  150 lbs

The car is a BJ7 with probably 80k miles and oil
pressure is 30-35lbs when warmed up at cruising speed.
 Thanks for your thoughts.
