I just completed a compression check with depressing results. Stock should be in 228psi +/- 28 max

First test DRY
#1 200
#2 195
#3 195
#4 195

Second Test WET (3 teaspoons of oil)
#1 280
#2 255
#3 270
#4 250

What do you think guys? Do you think it is bad rings? Where should I start with the diagnosises of this problem?

 

One more thing. I have 85,XXX miles.

 

I don't think that's too bad... they look even which is the good news.

 

The +/-28 is what scares me since it is a bit low? Anyone know what I could do to maybe help this matter or do you think it is time to rebuild the engine?

 

Boost it now since the compression is lower............ Im J.P

I dunno what to tell ya!

 

I think that she has plently of life in her... drive it like its hot!

 

if it aint burning oil then i wouldnt worry at all.

 

well after a bit of research I found out that my compression is just fine. Sorry for this guys. Take care all!

 

Make sure and open the throttle body when checking the compression. Many people forget to do this and it can make a big difference.

 

135psi to 228psi is within the range. With a max veration BETWEEN cylinders of 28psi.
