The desired compression level for a small engine, such as those found in lawn mowers or small outboard motors, typically ranges from 90 to 120 psi (pounds per square inch). This can vary based on the specific engine model and manufacturer specifications. Generally, a reading below 90 psi indicates wear or damage, potentially requiring maintenance or repairs. Engines with higher performance standards might have higher recommended compression levels. It’s crucial to consult the engine's manual or manufacturer for the most accurate information. Regular compression tests can help monitor engine health and prevent unexpected failures, contributing to a longer engine lifespan and more reliable operation.
