    i did my compression test are these okay?

    my compression test through all 4 cylinders starting from where cam gear is.. 205 210 215 205.. are these okay numbers?

    btw there is oil in the spark plug tubes.. i had this same problem with my previous accord and i got the lower spark plug tube seals and the upper ones and valve cover gasket and it fixed the problem.. im hoping this is the same problem?

    Did you do the compression test with the engine hot and the throttle held wide open?

    As long as all 4 cylinders are within 28psi of each other you are good. That is the manuals stated maximum variation.

    Oil in the spark plug tubes is a common issue with older F22 engines. Replace the tube seals just as you did on your last one and your good to go.

              Usually you want a 10-15% difference in readings. Yours is fine. If you have oil in your plug holes you need to replace your spark plug seals.

                I think it calls for 175 psi, i think all of mine were the same, im getting 185-190 on all, new rebuild with low compression pistons.
