Default 1990 johnson compression value

HI, what should the compression ideally be in a 1990 johnson 2cyl 50hp motor? I'm getting 105 in both on a friends motor..
Thanks

Default RE: 1990 johnson compression value

There is no figure for a compression check as battery condition (cranking speed) and gauge accuracy come into play. You want all the cylinders (2 in your case) within 15% of each other. 105 on both is fine.
