I checked my compression today after changing the oil and filter. on cylinder 1, with the throttle wide open, I got a reading of about 210 on the compression tester. this seems kind of high. what is a normal reading for our cars? the engine runs nice and smooth, it doesn't seem to have any problems related to poor compression, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to check it anyway. I'm just afraid that now that I'm taking the time to check it, something's going to go wrong.
