While I had everything apart the other day I did a compression test, and here are my results:

Dry test;
125
130
130
130
140
135

Wet test;
125
135
145
140
155
135

This was with the engine still somewhat warm, but it had been shut off for about an hour before I got around to doing the test. Overall I think it's doing okay, save for the #1 cylinder. How does this compare to what some of you guys are getting?

These numbers say "Nothing to worry about" to me. Did you do the test with all six spark plugs removed, and the choke and throttle blocked fully open?
