Full Version: compression numbers
taking compression readings on a newly built 2056, anyone know whatnumbers I should get?
I don't know the specific numbers for a 2056, but the minimum you need to run should be around 90. For a newly built (or rebuilt?) engine, I would think they'll be up around the 120's.

On a new engine, probably not an issue, but look for differences in numbers. If 3 of them are 115 and one is 90, there be issues.
Valves correctly adjusted, throttle OPEN, battery fully charged. There should be less than 5% difference in the readings. The Cap'n

I just love it when people agree w/ me- it makes me feel smart.
