Just stop being a ----- and boost it. Then get a cheap backup engine.

Re: Compression Test

Re: Compression Test

Re: Compression Test
 

thoe are pretty low compression numbers for an a6. rebuild time. that moors going to burn more oil than tires.

Re: Compression Test
 

educated guess, worn rings and a possible blown gasket between 2-3. or possibly a slightly warped head or deck.

Re: Compression Test
 

ya i would try the test again, i had a mac gauge that read wrong, used a fellow workers gauge that had been used 1000 times and found the mac gauge was bad. also i did a comp test on a accord, it was like 150-150-50-145, but it was just carbon deposits not alowing the valve to seat properly. i turned it over a few times more, then tryed it again, was 150 across, also do your valves need to be ajusted? and does she smoke?
