Compression on a 164E 140-160 1974

I'd expect 135-160 per cylinder and they should be fairly close to each other.
Remember it's pushing 30 years old so it would not be surprising for it to be
low. There is kind of a low correlation between compression and reliability,
although low compression probably does correlate with high oil consumption.
