D15 Compression Test
 

Well I finally got my car running (91 Civic hb). Changed the timing belt because the old one was stretched. Also went ahead and did the waterpump. Runs great now. After we had changed the timing belt and everything else it wouldn't start so we did a compression test because we couldn't figure out what was wrong and because I just felt like it. Since we couldn't get the car running we did the test with the engine cold and it was about 50 degrees out. 100-120-120-120 Does that seem alright on a cold engine. I am almost done peicing together a turbo kit for the engine.

Are you sure the belt is on right?
