Xr2 compression
« on: March 11, 2009, 04:08:00 PM »

does any one know what the compression should be
on a Xr2 mine runs terrible, if it starts. wondering if timing belt jumped time at crank.
marks look like they all line up, but compression
is only 140 on all cylinders. seems low.
thanks for any info.

The last time I did a compression test I had 150 across the board...140 does sound low but not unreasonable. Whats the mileage?
