Compression check
« on: December 20, 2012, 01:44:38 PM »
Did a compression check on 87 k75 cold, throttle closed was 115 on all 3. Then did one with warm motor throttle open and was 190 all 3. Is this normal? Motor has 57000.

Sounds about right. The open throttle is the correct one. Most important is that they are all equal. I would do a WOT one cold too, but sounds fine.
