compression test
Just did a compression test on my '70, 1.7 liter, and all cylinders came out around 115 lbs. Is this low, high, or in between for a 1.7 liter??? I am not blowing smoke, so I am not too worried. I also ran the test with a warm engine. I was told it should be done with a hot engine, but dont you risk stripping head threads when pulling plugs out of a hot engine?? Also, is there much variance between compression gauges? I used a screw in type.
