Question: What's normal engine compression for a stock TD.  I tested mine with
the engine slightly warm, throttle open and came up with, front to rear;  110,
115, 100, 100.    Squirted a few shots of oil in each cylinder  and got: 160,
165, 160, 125.    I suspect a weak valve in number four but the engine runs
fine and spark plugs all looked normal.   A check about 4000 miles ago showed
about the same.
