mark the problem i have now is the engine is out, so i have no way of running it to get the reading. any ideas. i've spoke to my mechanic who pulled the engine and he thought i was taking the pi$$ when i told him it was fooked,(he used to drive it a lot) but like i said the engine used to pull like a train, and a few day's b4 i took her off the road it even showed a supra tt it's heals. i've spoke to graham the lad who was going to buy it off me and he could'nt understand why it ran so smooth if it was bolixed

i'm thinking of getting a engine stand, and having a tinker. i have enough tools to do the job, so i might be in touch if i get stuck. lol thanks for your help.

i'm in two minds, as i dont need the engine you see, the money was going towards a v8. so this is set back. The problem being that nothing is selling at the minute, i've had my intercoolers for sale, for ages, so i don't realy want to spend money on this engine for it to sit in my garage. if you know what i meen. z master do you know what a recon engine goes for????

funki si had this problem. it still drove nice but his compretion was even lower. i wish i had left it in till i blew the shit out of it now. :headvswal

ok i'll post up the results. cheers guys.

ahh ok thanks. a job for the weekend then. so i just put a drop of oil in each of the cylinders. what am i looking for a increase in compresion?

ooooh not that good news then. the engine is now out so i don't know if i can (or how) to do a wet test.

forgot to mention the test was done from cold, with all the plugs out.

before i removed my engine i done a compresion test on in. i've not heard anything from the member who was going to buy it so might end up putting it on ebay. (this is not going to plan. got loads to sell as well) the engine used to pull really strong to. can someone confirm the results as good or bad. dsr 130 psi ..... psr 120 psi dsc 125 psi ..... psc 125 psi dsf 130 psi ..... psf 125 psi any advice would be greatfull.

fooking hell si, just had a look at your location might be a bit far. p&p could be expensive.

si have you got a engine or are you still looking. i might know someone with one. ;)

that is a fooking awesome machine.

funny i thought it was just me, but i supose someone has to be the last to post. rossce it can feel like that from time to time, don't worry about it, it's nothing persnal. this place is like hanging out with your mates, and theres always a good laugh to be had. give it a chance you'll love it. group hug for rossce. :D
