Back when I was replacing the plastic intake manifold on my 4.6L 2V, I borrowed equipment from a friend to do an engine compression test after the new intake was installed. The results seemed too high, and as this was the first time I did this, I didn't think much of it. This was in October '11 with 266,922 km (166,826 miles) on the clock:
#1: 196
#2: 200
#3: 198
#4: 200
#5: 200
#6: 200
#7: 200
#8: 196
Just wondering if these are acceptable to someone with experience, or if they really are high. This was just brought up during a conversation with someone today, who said 150 is the average, and there probably was a problem with the gauge. For the record, I did this when the engine was hot with all the plugs out and the ignition coils removed. Thanks!
