Cylinder Compression Pressure Test
•
The result of a cylinder compression pressure test
can be utilized to diagnose several engine malfunc-
tions.
• Ensure the battery is completely charged and the
engine starter motor is in good operating condition.
Otherwise the indicated compression pressures
may not be valid for diagnostic purposes.
Check engine oil level and add oil if neces-
sary.
Disconnect the spark plug wires.
Remove all spark plugs from engine (as spark plugs are being removed, check electrodes for
abnormal firing indicators fouled, hot, oily,
etc.).
Record cylinder number of each spark plug for future reference.
Disconnect fuel injector electrical connectors.
Be sure throttle blade is fully open during the compression check.
Insert compression pressure adaptor or the equivalent into each spark plug hole in cylinder head.
Crank engine until maximum pressure is reached on gauge. Record each cylinder pressure.
Compression should not be less than 880 kPa and not vary more than 25 percent from cylinder to cylinder.
If one or more cylinders have abnormally low compression pressures, repeat the compression test.
If the same cylinder or cylinders repeat an abnormally low reading on the second compression test, it could indicate the existence of a problem with the cylinder in question.
NOTE :
The recommended compression pressures are to be used only as a guide to diagnosing engine problems. An engine
should not be disassembled to determine the cause of low compression unless some malfunction is present.
