Can anyone tell me what the readings should be for a compression test on a 1098 ?

Bear in mind I'm testing cold:

10.25 bar
11.0
10.5
11.25

What's that in PSI? :lol:

150 is ok (wet and hot, I think), any better, good. They should all be in about 10% of each other, too.

Better nick than you would have thought looking at the old girl, but you get lucky sometimes Mike! Mind you how much more luck you con expect than finding a mini k with no structural rust and a good engine I am not sure 8)
