i'm going to go look at a car next week what's a good compression?

what's a "good" engine compression and what's an "acceptable" one?

also, does anyone have a scanned chart that i can read?

what should i look out for when going to buy an FC?

btw, GOOD compression is 7 or greater on the mazda tester, or 85 psi or more on a regular gauge...

'Acceptable' compression is anything lower than those numbers where the car still runs, lol
