6. Crank the engine with the throttle valve fully open and measure the
compression pressure.
Standard value (at engine speed of 200 r/min): 1,548 kPa (225 psi)
Minimum limit (at engine speed of 200 r/min): 1,117 kPa (162 psi)
7. Measure the compression pressure for all the cylinders, and check that the
pressure difference of the cylinders are below the limit.
Limit: 98 kPa (14 psi)
8. If there is a cylinder with compression or a compression difference that is
outside the limit, pour a small amount of engine oil through the spark plug
hole, and repeat the operations in steps 6 to 8.
1. If the com
pression increases after oil is added, the cause of the
