Just got my compresion test results back from the garage.
results were all around 9\'s, is this considered good?
its a 94 RX7 done about 40K miles
I would say yes remarkably so. The engine is as new but then the garage doing the testing could have told you that
9`s is very good, new engine good lol.. was it a proper rotary specialist compression test or a normal one?
Well done
Sounds like you got a peach
i think its a normal one, i told the dealer to go WGT get done but he said it was too far (the Ba****d)
he said he\'s got his own specialist to do it
well pip at wgt cn do you one just to double check :) your going there soon anyways aint ya man?
Have you already purchased this car? It sounds like you could be told that you wish to hear.
yeah, will be going there to get a proper service :)
yu know how much to get a compresion test from wgt?
i had to pay the guy £80 for that compresion test....
yeah already bought the car, test drived it and everything. everything was pretty good from the drive
dont think he charges must for it, if your having a service may do it for free :S
A few of us are planing a road trip to pips so join in if ya like m8
going down to pick the RX7 up next Thursday and will be going to WGT on the same day too, still need to book it tho :P
when are yu\'s going down?
Sounds good mate. A compression test really does not mean a lot. The drive and the way the car pulls through the rev range would give a good indication of how the car is.
Glad it drives well. :)
you`ll need 2-3 weeks notice for pips m8, better fone tomoz and book it lol.. dates not set for us yet but will be soon i think..
9\'s is pretty unheard of though...
yeah will need to give pip a phone tomorrow morning :P
"9\'s is pretty unheard of though..."
hopefully its really is 9\'s or closer...
9\'s are from pip told me when mine was done are good and so from that you should be pleased i know i was.
9\'s would be very good on some new engines. Is the engine brand spankers, or has he used a piston compression tester, did he give you a read out to prove?
It is important to take into consideration the RPM that the test was done at.
A proper rotary compression tester will compensate for the rpm anbd do a correction as the readings should be corrected to 250rpm.
