Woohoo - nice compression numbers!
So, the engine has been smoking a bit lately and I was getting bummed it may be tired and have worn rings, or be needing a valve job. I've got a strategy for that, which I'll post on if it works out. But in the mean time, I put new spark plug wires on it and did a compression test since I had the wires off the plugs anyhow. I'm pretty excited the compression numbers were 178-180-182-180. I don't have the specs yet but those look very good. It's nice to know the basics are good on the engine.
