Default Dry compression test Ok -wet not so good. Rebuild???

shows 210 and 185. ....


Tom, I'm thinking that the two cylinders that are high "wet" are OK, though the
one at 210 sounds high. Probably due for a valve job as the other cylinders
did not show a rise in pressure when wet. Normally I'd expect to see a moderate
increase when doing a "wet" test. Actually the absolute numbers are less
important (within reason) than the difference between cylinders anything over
10% or so is suspect.
Good luck
Mike
