Subject:What's considered good compression on a 2.1L?
From:Mark A Kippert

I'm going to be working on my Vanagon this evening. I plan to replace
plugs and thought I'd check cylinder compression. The PO didn't know
the engines history and with over 200k miles I'd like to know it's
overall condition. What is factory compression and what is considered
acceptable? I don't have my Bentley to check it at the moment and
besides, I need to take a class on Bentley usage to fully understand
it's usage (and believe me I've spent hours just trying to trace a
wire in the wiring diagram).

Thanks!
