Re: Compression Test
I believe it's 195 new. If it's not lower than 185, and there's not more than 30% deviation, it's fine.

Re: Compression Test
As far as I know, for the US V6 its 180psi with less than 20% deviation across all cylinders. The KLZE is 200psi with less than 20% deviation. It should say in the shop manual somewhere.
