b230ft compression - 160 lbs normal? 700 1990

posted by  someone claiming to be Steve Coleman on  Fri Aug 10 19:03 CST 2001 [RELATED]

is 160 lbs normal compression for a b230ft? I let the engine turn over 3 times to get a reading of 160 on each cylinder. I guess that's normal with a analog guage. cyl 1 & 2 were 160 and 3 & 4 were at 165.

I'm also curious about normal compression on the E series engines. Apparantly it's higher.
