Your compression numbers do not realy matter, what matter is that they are all close to the same. If you have more than a 10-15% diffrence then you have troubles.

Every pressure gauge is diffrent every person does it a little diffrent The numbers do not matter. what matters is that they are close, within a few PSI of each other. does not matter if you are at 80 PSI or 140 as lolng as they are all close to the same.

Remove all plugs. Leave ignition off and turn her over at least 5 times on each cylinder with a jumper or remote start switch across the solenoid.
