It's a 8 Cylinder, 6.5L, 4 Barrel Carb.
It depends on equal compression between all cylinders.
The Oldsmobile V-8 rocket engine was introduced in the 1949 model year.
worn or broken compression rings engine needs a rebuild
Yes you can
You may have compression on any cylinder where the valves happen to be closed, but you will not have compression on all cylinders. 1991 Sable does not have a 305 engine.
Cylinders compression pressure Sentra 1.8 : 192 psi
The power of the engine and the maximum speed of the 1953 Oldsmobile Rocket 88 are 330 hp (250 kW) and 97 mph (156 km/h) respectively.
The repair depends on what is causing the low compression. Low compression can be caused by a blown head gasket, cracked cylinder head, burnt or damaged valves, worn or cracked piston rings, scored block cylinders. It's kind of hard to imagine that an engine would have low compression on all 6 cylinders unless something major is wrong, or the compression gauge is not measuring properly.
Oldsmobile introduced the "Rocket" overhead valve V8 engine.
12 degrees btdc.
The Rocket 350 oldsmobile engines will bolt in as well as the Rocket 455 olds.
If there is NO compression on any of the cylinders, you've probably slipped the timing belt/chain. Just knowing that there is no compression is insufficient information to make a decision about replacing the engine. You COULD need to have the engine rebuilt, or it's possible that a valve "kissed" a piston and the engine is toast. Or... it could be something else. If it's just low compression in one or two cylinders, it could even be caused by burned or sticking valves.
