Compression Values ??? 850 1994

posted by  someone claiming to be HiFi70 on  Mon Mar 11 05:51 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I am wondering if anyone can tell me the acceptable range on compression test values for a 94 850 Turbo wagon?

Thanks!
Chris.

    Can I assume that you've already checked compression? It's usually not a problem but it'll be similar to any other engine if you've done it before, should be about 150psi or more in 3 cranks depending on a few factors. What's more important is that all the cylinders are fairly equal, not one with say 110 psi as that would indicate a problem in that cylinder.
