thats a little on the worn engine side of compression,but that in itself would not keep it from starting....most likely a fuel or spark problem. you can check fuel pressure with a screw in guage from autozone,and check spark with an inline spark tester from autozone.
pounds of compression per cylinder
Should be around 150 psi.
Compression is normally expressed in terms of pounds per square inch (PSI),...foot lbs would relate to twisting forces such as a spinning crank shaft. Two different animals.
100 psi and all within 25%100 psi and all within 25%
The compression specification for a 1987 Dodge 318 engine typically ranges between 150 to 170 psi (pounds per square inch) per cylinder when the engine is in good condition. It's important to note that actual readings can vary based on the engine's wear, maintenance history, and altitude. For the most accurate assessment, it's best to perform a compression test on the specific engine.
compression ratio is 6:5.1 the compression test should read 120 pounds give or take. hope this helps.
The 1979 Mustang weight is * 2,431 pounds four-cylinder coupe * 2,511 pounds six-cylinder coupe * 2,451 pounds four-cylinder hatchback * 2,531 pounds six-cylinder hatchback * 2,539 pounds four-cylinder Ghia coupe * 2,619 pound six-cylinder Ghia coupe * 2,548 pounds four-cylinder Ghia hatchback * 2,628 pounds six-cylinder Ghia hatchback
a strong engine should read between 150 and 180 pounds of pressure in each cylinder.
For the 200 cubic inch straight 6 cylinder in a 1965 Ford Mustang with 9.2 to 1 compression ratio : 155 to 195 with 20 PSI tolerance between cylinders
The torque specs for a Toyota Camry cylinder head is 60 pounds for the inside bolts and 50 pounds for the site bolts. The cylinder head bolts should be tight from and to end alternating.
The cylinder head bolt torque setting is 120 pounds. The cylinder head bolts should be torqued in 60 pound intervals.
The cylinder had bolt torque specification is 90 pounds. The cylinder head bolts should be torqued in 30 pound intervals.
