Hey all what is an acceptable compression for a B18C7 motor? I know brand spanners is 270 psi according to the manual.

If people have done a test before what they have been reading for a 2nd hand motor and also what is good compression.

Thanks.

Anywhere from 220 to 250 psi is the norm just make sure engine is warm and there is less than 10% descrepency between the cylinders
