Pounds or bars? What method of checking are you using, regular compression gauge, I assume? If so, have you removed the check valve? If you have, look for the three even bounces of the needle. The pressure reading can be dependent on test rpm. The FSM states that testing rpm should be 250+-. If your rpm is lower, the reading should be lower, if the speed is higher, then you might get a higher reading. Either way, at about 250 rpm, if it hits 85 and up on all three needle swings, then you should be ok.

I'd suggest you search again. There are tons of threads on compression issues. About 20 minutes before your last post, this was active on the board.
