Title: compression 202 red motor
Post by: yackboy49 on June 11, 2012, 04:28:45 PM
150,160,155,160,155,155
wet test the following
175,175,175,175,140,160

using oil. however I don't see any blue smoke, what do I conclude from these readings ?

On some readings gauge dropped back from 155 to 20, would that have been the connection ?

cheers

Compression rings are worn a bit, not necessarily burning oil. The no 5 wet test result is not right - it cant be lower than the dry test.
