[QUOTE="Jay415, post: 276676, member: 6905"] WHAT A RELIEF!!! I was really nervous that I made a bad purchase with this motor. I was getting 90psi compression in each cylinder. I got my service manual in and specs say that compression should be 120psi or better. Well, the big, big mistake I did was buying a compression gauge from Harbor Freight! I read the reviews on it after I bought it #-o It got horrible reviews! I mean bad! not one person claimed it gave an accurate reading! So I stopped by Pep Boys and picked up a new Actron compression gauge and Bam!!! 135psi in each cylinder!!! SO so happy!! I really though I f'd up with this one! Now just waiting for my carb kit to come in and this thing should purr like a kitten! [/QUOTE]
