Bill,

Found this in my Haynes Repair Manual.

"With the engine up to running temperature, the ignition disconnected and the throttle wide open put the compression gauge into cylinder No 1. Crank the engine over at least 4 compression strokes. The compression should build up quickly in a healthy engine. Low compression on the first stroke, followed by gradually increasing pressure on successive strokes, indicates worn rings. A low reading on the first stroke, which does not build up during cranking indicates leaking valves, or a blown head gasket cracked head etc, etc.

In the case of a low reading, add some engine oil down the bore[about three squirts from a plunger type oil can] and crank the motor. If the compression increases after the oil is added, then the rings are definitely worn. If the compression does not increase significantly, then leakage is occurring at the valves or in the head and or gasket."

"Pressure should be 150 to 170 psi and minimum of 120psi"

All according to my Haynes manual.
