whats the lowest compression an n/a 7 can have in each rotor housing before it shouldnt be running?? the haynes manual i have says the limit on the lowest it can get is 85psi but im not quite sure on that

 

What is the reading your seeing?

 

its bouncing between 50-55psi and its bouncing the same on all surfaces on both rotor housings

 

how well does it run? if it runs at all it should barely run like that..u sure ur compression tester is good?

pat

 

i'm at 60 and i cant drive cuz it just floods

 

thats the thing...it runs great and the tester is has only been used twice

 

Well, keep this in mind (and we have gone over this before).

Compression reading isnt an absolute reading. There are factors that will cause the reading to change. Speed of your starting system will affect compression readings, heat of the motor, etc.

Are you sure you did the test right? Motor warm, Pressure relief off the tester, gas pedal floored?

 

damn..thats what i didnt do was warm the motor up or anything i started it pulled it in the garage and shut it off

 

No wonder you got a funny reading.

 

another mystery solved!

 

Let us know when you do it again.

 

im gonna do it again tommorrow when i get home from work.. so ill let you know the results then
