This is a follow up to previous post about my 2H
Davoe gave me the desired numbers:
Desirable- 2746kpa
minimum- 1961kpa
maximum variation between cylinders 196kpa
And these are what came from the compression
test today:
Cylinder 1: 1708kpa (350psi) 88% leakage to sump
Cylinder 2: 1611kpa (330psi) 90% leakage to sump
Cylinder 3: 1806kpa (370psi) 86% leakage to sump
Cylinder 4: 1806kpa (370psi) 84% leakage to sump & inlet
Cylinder 5: 1855kpa (380psi) 76% leakage to sump
Cylinder 6: 1855kpa (380psi) 44% leakage to sump & inlet
So the engine is beyond the recovery stage, and almost within the maximum variation. Any opinions? Im going to tassie for
easter, and
Cape York in June. I shouldnt have any problems doing that, should I?
