An engine compression test on a 99 Grand Prix GTP can cost $180
Compression springs cost about $3-$5 per spring.
How much the cost MT 799 to issue
9:1+
It should have a minimum of 70 psi.
possibly a lot of carbon build up in the combustion chamber but in a lifetime I have never had a small engine with to much compression.
What ever it cost you for a motor rebuild. It varys from shop to shop.
The cost to fix a compression issue in a cylinder can vary significantly based on the underlying cause and the vehicle make and model. Typically, repairs can range from $500 to $2,500 or more. Minor issues, like a blown head gasket, may be on the lower end, while more extensive repairs, such as a complete engine rebuild, can be much more expensive. It's best to get a detailed estimate from a qualified mechanic to understand the specific costs involved.
Basically diesel engines are much higher compression giving them more torque also the fuel is ignited by compression not a spark like in a gas engine
The fuel is ignited by compression and not by a spark plug. The compression of the cylinders is much higher than in a gas engine. The fuel must be compressed to the point at which it will ignite. This cause the noise you hear from a diesel engine.
Diesel engines fire on compression rather than spark. This requires that a diesel engine be made much stronger than a petrol engine. All internal components are made to much stronger specifications. A petrol engine could not handle the higher compression and would self destruct.
Need to know what type of pressure check, engine compression, cooling system, ac system, air pressure in tires, etc. Then we need to know the year, make, model and engine info.
