They said they were 160, 165, 165, 165 The guy also said that they would be low figures, because the engine has been sitting for a long time, and that these figures could come up to 180 or 190 psi once the engine is run and put under load for a while. Does this sound beleivable to you guys? anyone observed this phenomenon? Or are they just making excuses for relatively low compression. The documented compressions test specs for these engines is 153 minimum and 193 maximum psi, so the results are within spec, but I think my own silvertop had similar results last I tested it and its burning a bit of oil. BTW, anyone know what the minimum and maximum compression specs are meant to be for the silvertop? (I used to know but I lost the information) Cheers, Adam. [Report message to a moderator]
