F355 compression test
Discussion
Back in 2006 I had a PPI compression test done on an F355 I was looking to buy and the results were:
1. 195 p.s.i
2. 210
3. 205
4. 205
5. 195
6. 205
7. 205
8. 210
The advice I got on FChat was that these were good results, not necessarily because of the numbers themselves (although apparently 220-230 psi was a "new" value) but because they were all grouped tightly together.
I bought the car. It was fab!!

After a bit of advice gearing the results of a compression test on the engine of a 98 F355 manual I’m looking to buy from a franchised main dealer. The test was carried out today and the result sheet is as the link below. As far as I can make out, it reads 9 bar which is about 130 psi.
I know the internet can be a world of misinformation but from what I’ve found so far that sounds quite low.
Thanks in advance
One thing that's a bit odd is the numbers Renmure quoted would be around 13- 14 bar and the ticket you have doesn't go up that far, perhaps some clarity needed on the result I know the internet can be a world of misinformation but from what I’ve found so far that sounds quite low.
Thanks in advance
I did a search of my own posts and confirmed what I said was right, just incase I was miss-remebering but what I posted above was accurate in my case.
