Compression should be around 120. If it's below 100, you looking at a rebuild in the very near future. Below 90, and the future is now.

got the checker. put it in and turned it over at full throttle and ended up at 100 to 103 psi. i put a new kng plug in and cleaned the filters and it seems be doing as good as new for now. thanks for the help.
