uneven compression 700 1988

Which cylinder did you start with? Warm engine? Did you add oil and retest each cylinder to rule out the rings? I don't think a 10% difference is enough to be worried about, but from what little I know, 135 does sound like it's on the low side. You could try a leakdown test too.
