Owner did a compression check, and readings came in 110-115 psi on all three cyls. Is this below, avg, or above what a motor of this age shld have. This board is great, thanks for your help.

Average.. As long as it's above 100psi and all cylinders are within 10 psi of each other .. So it looks A-OK.. ;)

You are in great shape with that compression. Enjoy what I consider to be one of the most reliable engines ever made.<br /><br />John
