Default Dry compression test Ok -wet not so good. Rebuild???

Tom, I'm thinking that the two cylinders that are high "wet" are OK, though the
one at 210 sounds high. Probably due for a valve job as the other cylinders
did not show a rise in pressure when wet. Normally I'd expect to see a moderate
increase when doing a "wet" test. Actually the absolute numbers are less
important (within reason) than the difference between cylinders anything over
10% or so is suspect.
Good luck
Mike
