compression test confussed.

[shane01]

swaped my td04 earlyer since the seals were gone or so i guessed. so i done a compression test since one was available.

i got around 8 bar on the guage must be around 130 across all 4 of them. thats from just turnin it over im not sure if i needed to give it gas at the same time?

could this be head gasket on its way out ??

try it again with the throttle open. if they are all equal then chances are its fine. if you get the same result drop a bit of oil down the plug holes and see if that makes any difference

i wasnt sure if u needed to give it any throttle so i just turned it over by the key, and they were all dead on just over 8 bar on the gauge, but the car pulls like a train so not to worried

is it a standard engine? the engine needs to be warm and wide open throttle to get an accurate reading
