Want this question answered?
Oil burning or loss of compression on any one cylinder. It may also be missing on one cylinder. A compression test will verify this.
9.4.1. I'am thinking it is.. can anyone correct me if you can please...
Blown head gasket is one cause.
Tosh says you should of had a v8
My 1991 Ford Mustang 5.0 liter V8 ( LX ) had a compression ratio of ( 9.0 to 1 from the factory ) ( 8th " character of VIN was an " E " )
According to my best knowledge the '67 Tempest LeMans was available with: 400/360 HP Ram Air V8 Engine 428/360 HP 4bbl V8 Engine 428h.o./376hp 4bbl V8 Engine 230/265HP Inline 6 Engine Tempest 326/250 HP V8 Engine (<- the default engine) Tempest 326/285 HP 4bbl (<-differs from the above only in the higher compression #141 heads. [again best of my knowledge])
The lowest reading cylinder should not be less than 70% of the highest and no cylinder reading should be less than 689 kPa (100 psi). Perform compression test with engine at normal operating temperature, spark plugs removed and throttle wide open
120-150 psi
The ford 4.6 v8 engine rotates in a clockwise direction looking at the front. This should be the same for most Ford engines.
The V8 engine has ( 8 engine cylinders )
I'm assuming you mean static compression ratio. There were two 350 (5.7) engines offered by Pontiac. The standard engine was around 8.5 to 1. The HO version was factory rated at 10.5 to 1.
Depends on the manufacturer, engine model, and year. Displacement and number of cylinders don't determine horsepower.. bore, stroke, and compression ratio play into it, as well.
