What is loose compression?
Loss of compression is caused by bad internal engine wear or internal engine failure. Both mean the engine will need serious repair
Main advantages and disadvantages between compression ignition and spark ignition engines?
A spark ignition engine is a gasoline engine. A compression ignition is a diesel engine.basic difference between compression and spark ignition engine is ,compression ignition is a diesel engine. spark ignition is a gasoline engine.diesel engines compress the fuel to a point where the fuel explodes, thus giving ignitiongasoline does not compress to explosion, therefore it needs need a spark to ignite the fuelspark ign. is gasoline. comp. ign. is diesel.A compression ignition engine is typically a diesel. It compresses air so much that the heat from the compression is enough to cause the fuel to ignited once injected. A spark ignition engine is your average gasoline-burning car engine. It uses a spark plug to ignite the air/fuel mixture instead of relying on compretssion ignition.A compression ignition engine uses very high compression of the air to heat it self up and the fuel is injected into the cylinder which self ignites (a diesel engine is a compression ignition engine).A spark ignition engine uses a lower compression ratio and requires the use of a spark to ignite the fuel (a petrol engine is a spark ignition engine).Because the oils used for a diesel have a higher calorific value, they have a better fuel economy, They also do not need extra energy usage to keep the engine running, unlike the energy that is lost to power the spark plugs from the generator/alternator which is taken from the useful energy produced by the engine.
How much compression should a diesel have?
A diesel engine requires at least a 20:1 compression ratio, or about double a gasoline engine. The PSI this translates to depends on the size of the cylinder. You will need to consult the manufacturer's service manual.
What could cause low compression in all cylinders of a 1986 Isuzu Trooper with an inline 4?
AGE ! if it is low compression and not no compression then your piston rings and valves are worn too much and the engine probably needs to be rebuilt.

What is the compression psi on a 1990 engine?
Normal compression on a gasoline engine is about 125 psi.
When doing a compression test on a gas engine do you start the engine?
No, The compression test is done as the starter cranks the engine
What is correct engine compression on a 1972 datsun b110?

What is the engine compression for a 93 jeep cherokee?
Normal engine compression would be 100-125psi
Why is there no compression on a 2 stroke engine?
There is no separate compression stroke on a 2 stroke engine, but there is compression - the intake and compression take place on the same staroke, the intake on the first part and compression on the later part.
