Does anybody know the compression that should be in a b18b1 motor? i dont need the ratio, i need the compression in PSI ? does anybody know it? my engine is showing around 150psi in all 4 cylinders and its not running right...

it shouldn't exceed 199 psi or be lower than 135 psi in a b18b1

ok thanks, so my compression is good then... because it shows around 150 in all 4 cylinders.Originally Posted by boosted b
how is it running

i think that it must be running rich or something, because when i drive it does not pull at all, has no power. it idles good, but when i rev it up it starts to misfire or something i dont even knowOriginally Posted by boosted b
when was the last time u tuned it up or what kinda gas have u put in it lately

i didnt tune it, filled up at qt before i didn the swap. i just put it in my hatch like a week agoOriginally Posted by boosted b
was it running ok before u put it in or u don't know

i thought it did. it sounded pretty good but the car wasnt drivable so i couldnt check,Originally Posted by boosted b
without really lookin at it all i could really do is guess but start with the tune up

An LS SHOULD somewhere around 175-180 psi. 150 is kinda low.
"Cool car" less.

even though 150 sounds a little low it should run fine with that compression.
