I have a 1987 GL Dual Range EA82 Hitachi stock Carburated wagon.
I pulled the motor, resealed , Headgaskets, DIY head resurfacing, hand ground the valves. 286K miles sat for 3 years and had a rough prior life.
found the vacuum advance unit defective (Different post).
I did a cold compression test today. Airfilter removed, plugs removed,coil wire disconnected, and wide open throttle.the results astounded me.
140# in all cylinders with no deviation!
Is this possible? I am hoping so . She runs great other than a blow by in the aircleaner issue which I will make a oilcatch can per other posts here on this awesome site.and of course the vacuum advance issue.
Thank you:)
