What part should be removed to test cylinder compression on a diesel engine?
To test cylinder compression on a diesel engine, the glow plugs or injectors should be removed. This allows access to the combustion chamber for the compression test gauge. Removing these components ensures that the engine can turn over freely without interference during the test.
What is the cylinder compression for a 2003 90 hp mercury outboard?
I have a 2005 and compression should be close to 120 psi. Normally a good engine will have compression between 115 and 130 psi but a leak down test should be performed also to know the full condition of a cylinder.

How many compression strokes during a compression test?

When does an engine need to be rebuilt?
The easiest answer is when it fails a compression test. Buy a compression tester (farily cheap), and test each cylinder. If one single cylinder is below 120 psi, or if one cylinder reads 15% less pressure than the cylinder with the highest pressure, your engine should be torn down and checked. The problem might only be in the heads, but it's still time for some serious work.
