that doesn't look good at all, they all should be in the hundreds like 165 or so. I think

anything under 10% is considered good, so that motor would pass that test. All there doing is putting air into each cylinder and seeing how much leaks out pass rings/valves.

Numbers look good. Is there a reason why you got a leakdown test done? How is the car running?

I really wanted the compression done but when I asked for a leakdown/compression check they must not have heard me completly. Thanks for the help. I was always under the that those numbers were good but needed second opinions. Thanks guys
