Subject:      Wanted: comments on my compression test results
Content-Type: Text/Plain; Charset=US-ASCII

I did a dry compression check on my 87 (about 80k miles) the other day
and got the following results:
LF 120, LR 135, RF 115, RR 130
Any cause for alarm here or are these readings typical? I've owned the
van for the last 20k miles, but have no previous readings. Van runs well
but produces some whitish exhaust when first started, after it's been
sitting a couple of days.
I'm thinking of doing an emissions test just to see how things stand
there.
All comments appreciated.
Lee
