The compression psi for a 1965 Champion forklift can vary based on the specific engine model it uses. Generally, for older forklifts like those from that era, the compression pressure is typically around 120-150 psi per cylinder. It's essential to consult the manufacturer's specifications or service manual for the exact compression psi for the specific model and engine type.
To determine the compression ratio from the psi (pounds per square inch) reading of an engine, you typically need additional information, such as the specifications of the engine, including the displacement and the type of gauge used for the psi measurement. However, a common method is to use the formula: Compression Ratio (CR) = (Absolute Pressure in Cylinder + Atmospheric Pressure) / Atmospheric Pressure. For example, if the atmospheric pressure is approximately 14.7 psi, the absolute pressure would be 155 psi + 14.7 psi = 169.7 psi, leading to a rough compression ratio of about 12.5:1.
110 to 120 psi
Should be 110 PSI
It should have a minimum of 70 psi.
85-125 psi is acceptable.
480 psi minimum
150 psi should not vary by more than 10 psi between cylinders
