Re: what to do ?
24 May 2016 11:04Please confirm how you did the compression test. Did you do what Ed said?650ed wrote: You may not have tested the compression properly. To do so :
The engine must be warmed up to normal operating temperature. The pistons taper in near the top so with the engine warmed up they expand near the top which helps the rings seal against the cylinder walls.
The battery needs to be fully charged.
The throttle needs to be held all the way open.
All spark plugs must be removed.
If you do all that and compression is still low you should perform a leak down test. That will identify where the compression is leaking (could be valves, rings, head gasket, etc.) If you remove the cylinder head before performing the leak down test you will have lost the opportunity to use that diagnostic tool.
Ed
Does your compression gauge have a check valve in the tip? If not, that will cause low readings.

The float needle's seat does have a gasket.
I don't really want to repeat the service manual on my site. But my site does show the gasket.

Ed said the throttle must be held wide open during the test.
Did you do that?

after i tace out i use micrometer .in picture its write shim thickness from 1 til 8 in black color.
from manual valve clearance its
ex 0.15-0.25mm
in 0.10-0.20 mm
so if i want new shims to mace at metalworkers
i do :
1. 0.15mm is valve clearance i need to have 0,20 mm
0.20-0.15=0.05 mm
shim is standing under cup 2.44 mm
2.44-0.05=2.39mm2.38mm
so i need to make 2.39 mm 2.38 mm shim
next shims i have on paper :
its ok o i need others shims o i can grind shims at metalworkers???
