Not sure how to enter a new post, so here goes: I've got a Ford 601 Diesel (1962?), and it's at a fairly honest shop for diagnosis. They took a compression check, and it's 118,120,118,116 (psi) The book that I have says 365-400 psi. But the mechanic says that 365 psi is rated at 1000 rpm, and you can only crank at about 300 rpm. I believe the compression check should show 365 if you crank it for maybe 15 seconds or so. What do you think? I haven't asked the mechanic to inject some oil into the cylinder to see what that does.
