Compression Test, These #'s make me go ouch
Well...i did a COLD compression test today....thought i would see what my numbers are since i knew it needed to be rebuilt.
1. 145PSI 2. 70PSI 3. 125PSI 4. 135PSI gotta love it! LOL...So this weekend my engine will go under the knife...im gonna replace the rod bearings, water pump, timing belt, head gasket, Low Temp T-Stat, Oil Pan Gasket and im gonna put in some Chrome Piston Rings. The Rings im getting are better than stock and they will help with the turbo ive put on...for now ive unhooked my uppercharge pipe because i cant let the car go into boost cause it shoves all that pressure into the crankcase and shoving the oil into my catch can at rediculous rates of speed. In one hard boost run from 1st gear thru 5th at 10psi it will fill the catch can 1inch...and the can is 4in round and 7in tall...kinda like a small folgers can almost...so it would be cylinder #2 that does the trick....just thought i would post this for ur viewing pleasure! louie |
