Title: compression test results high in one cylinder??????
Post by: xrunner on 28 September 2007, 19:57

Has anyone ever seen 250 psi in one cylinder and 140-150 in the rest. I have a 1990 1.8L 8v, engine code ABS.  Engine runs rough and sometimes I loose oil preasure after driving it hard.  Thanks for any info.

Sticky valves possibly it does seem wrong all should be near enough the same.
