COMPRESSION CHECK
EG21U±02
HINT: If there is lack of power, excessive oil consumption or
poor fuel economy, measure the compression pressure.

ture.

tion and the negative (±) terminal cable is disconnected
from the battery.

15. CHECK CYLINDER COMPRESSION PRESSURE
(a) Reconnect the battery negative (±) cable.
(b) Insert a compression gauge into the spark plug hole.
(c) Fully open the throttle.
(d) Wh ile cra n kin g th e en g in e , me a su re th e co mp re ssio npressure.
HINT: Always use a fully charged battery to obtain engine
speed of 250 rpm or more.
(e) Repeat steps (b) through (d) for each cylinder. NOTICE: This measurement must be done in as short a
time as possible.
Compression pressure:
1,226 kPa (12.5 kgf/cm
2, 178 psi) or more
Minimum pressure: 981 kPa (10.0 kgf/cm
2, 142 psi)
Difference between each cylinder: 98 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm
2, 14 psi) or less
(f) If the cylinder compression in one or more cylinders is low,pour a sm all amount of engine oil into the cylinder through the
spark plug hole and repeat steps (b) through (d) for cylinders
with low compression.
w If adding oil helps the compression, it is likely that the
piston rings and/or cylinder bore are worn or damage.
w If pressure stays low, a valve may be sticking or seating
is improper, or there may be leakage past the gasket.
(g) Disconnect the battery negative (±) cable.
16. REINSTALL SPARK PLUGS
Using a 16 mm plug wrench, install the 8 spark plugs.
