pshojo Posted April 5, 2015 Report Share Posted April 5, 2015 (edited) I am parting out my dads 98 REGAL GS, simply it has gotten too rusty. Thought about using the drive train for my car. What is acceptable range for engine compression? I did the front three cylinder compression test quickly. I received 130-150-130. Is this good enough to use that in not going to have to do something with the engine? Or would it be better to just not use it. Or? Note: engine was cold when I did test Edited April 5, 2015 by pshojo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White93z34 Posted April 5, 2015 Report Share Posted April 5, 2015 sounds decent for cold, but you are really supposed to do a compression test hot how many miles on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
