Pwr balance diag result

Just had the car sonsulted. These are the figures below on the printout. Can someone explain what they mean? I know nothing about how engines work so keep it simple!! The reason i'm asking is because i'd like to know if i have anything to worry about, or to look out for.

An explanation and advice could well result in a pint if you're at Japfest 2 on sunday :duffer:

 

no1 115rpm

no2 111rpm

no3 110rpm

no4 115rpm

no5 127rpm

no6 122rpm.

 

Thanks, Daffy.

at first glance they look like cylinder compression test results - decent figures would be 140+psi. if that's what they are then they look low but they are consistent (i.e. no zeroes!)

 

having said that i don't think a conzult can do a compression test can it?

 

if not then I can't imagine what would happen at 100rpm (other than inevitable stall!) :confused:

 

I'm sure someone will clear it up in a jiffy

Thanks mate. If you are correct and they should read 140+ that might just have ruined my friday night. Cheers for answering so quickly.

Your values may be "highest rpm drop" looking at "zed-me-up" posting. If this is correct, then all looks fine to me buddy.

Thanks guys. I went to work before the mechanic picked the car up and finished after he dropped it back off. He sent me a text saying all is good, but he's away 'til monday. I'm just trying to educate myself as i go. I'm sure it'll all make sense when i see him. Comparisons are always good. Need a 'control' set of values though. At least that's what i remember from school!!

Thanks, Daffy.

Whats your cars idle speed,those figures are low,id expect them to be higher than that.On average around 200 ish.After ive rebuilt an engine they usually read around 300.

Thanks zed-me-up. Nice one.Is it therefore safe to assume the figures i quoted are 'highest rpm drop'? If so should i be overly worried? Thanks guys.
