Chronicles of the slow 16v

well at an bird's eye view taking you lowest
compression value with your highest value you have a
max diffrential of 5, which I beleive (check bentley)
quite resonable inside of specs.

the actuall value of any of the compression # coudl be
inside of note from specs...

yes you should have the engine warm and shoudl follow
the test with a wet compression test.
