    Compression ?

    Les Its a Petrol I removed all the plugs, gave each cylinder a couple of shots of oil and then turned the engine over for 5 or 6 revolutions on the starter. Thanks

    Compression ?

    Hello All I am current restoring a 1961 Series 2a Project which I bought a couple of years ago, I'm just about to start looking at the engine and did a compression test today and the results from the fan backwards are 120, 95, 95 & 30 psi. I want to keep the engine and wondered :- 1) What should the compression be? 2) What may be causing the low reading on the last cylinder 3) Whist I have the engine out and on an engine stand what else is worth doing to it before it goes back in , e.g. Electronic Iginition or Megajolt, complete refurb etc. etc. Thanks OWL
