Hi folks,
Just purchased a new-to-me 86 22RE engine in a 4runner and got a compression test done.
Results:
1, 3, 4 - 150 PSI
2 - 125 PSI
The test was done with a very cold engine (been sitting for 2 days).
The mechanic shop didn't think it wasn't a concern for an engine that age and, at operating temperature, would likely seal up even better.
Thoughts?
PS - I'm about to drive this 3600 miles cross-country and operate it on the very remote Nevada desert floor for a month.
