Mazda reman

I have recently purchased my second FC and this time around, took more concern into the condition of the engine. The engine has almost 60,000 on the rebuild and was apparently Mazda remanufactured. The seller claimed to compression test it with 120 psi, but I found that hard to believe as I have heard that is even impressive for a fresh rebuild. After testdriving with satisfaction....and purchasing, I tested the compression and confirmed it to be 120 psi. These results made me very happy, but can somebody ...confirm what these results mean as I think there almost too good to be true. My gut feeling tells me this is an engine that's going to last me. How long do you think an engine like this will last me? Just a rough estimate as driving styles vary...

Sounds like you have a healthy engine. Just take care of it, and dont beat the **** out of it. You should have a nice LONG life engine
