I have a 1988 Sunbird Corsiar with a GM 4.3ltr V6 and OMC cobra drive. I removed the plugs, the number one had something wet on it but they all looked good. Compression was 160 to 170 without putting any oil in cylinder. Is that good? I am trying different things because my engine is running real bad on the lake. Idles okay but when I try to throttle up it bogs down and I have to work the throttle just keep it running and it barely runs. I have rebuilt the carb. Although it passed a fuel volume test in the driveway I am in the process of checking the antosiphon valve. I have found no water or trash in the gas removed from the water seperator. The wires look good, distributor cap clean, points opening and clean. Checked the ESA because that is how it is running like the ESA may be stuck on. I have other post, just started this one to get feedback on my compression results. Thanks!!!
