No problem but would like to get some feedback on my 240. I purchased my car new in 86. Since 2006, I do a compression check about once a year or so and record the numbers.
12-20-06 Compression was #1-191 PSI #2,#3,#4 -204-210 PSI.
10-12-07 Compression was #1 191 psi #2 204 psi #3 200 psi #4 205 psi
2-06-09 compression Was #1 210 psi #2 220 psi #3 215 psi #4 221 psi

On the First two check they were done in the morning with the car cold and I did not disconnect the injectors or coil and took out on plug at a time. This time car was warm and had all the plug out. Two weeks ago I add 4 oz. of sea Foam to the oil before driving to Orlando and change it when I go home. It was black. I use 15-50 Mobil 1. Is this normal to have these kink of numbers?
