can anyone tell me if these compression test results are normal dry test no 1=176 no2=174 no3=188 no4=180 wet test no1=188 no2=180 no3=194 no4=192 i think my rings have gone because it smokes when i rev it, but as i have not done a compression test before i can not be sure. thanks guys
valve stem seals instead?
did them only put the head back on a week ago
you might of nipped the seal when putting them back in, run it a bit longer whip the plugs out you will tell which one due to crud on the plug
I have 190psi +/- 2 on all 4 cylinders on my megane 1.6e 8v k7m.
I had a problem with mine. It did smoked after head gasket replacement. But as ChrisH told me, it was a stuck piston ring. It is now perfect and not smoking at all.
Spray some WD40 in the cylinders and give it some time. It should help if its a stuck ring.
