What is the Compression....

[BurnsSide42]

What should the Compression be on a AMC 360 1979 Cherokee? I am gonna check the 79's when i goto look at it on Sat. so i will need to know what each cylinder should be. THX!

[The Donzi]

Compression for 1979 360 should be a minimum of 120-140 psi and maximum variation between cylinders should be 30 psi.

Hey Burnside, I drove past there today and the cherokee was gone, talked to the guy he said it was sold. I asked him if anyone else looked at it and he said money talks and he needed money.

opps!
lol well jeff, back to the boards.

WHAT!!!

[BurnsSide42]

does that mean he sold it or...WHAT?! Jeep Craze, you just broke my heart! Crap!

[Jeep Craze]

I would assume he sold it......It isn't there anymore. Sorry dude...but for what it was It doesn't surprise me. I mean a 30,000 miles rust free cherokee chief w/ 360 in it......I am surprised it was there as long as it was....It was there from wed. until well....I am guessing yesterday or early today. Sorry dude...Guess you will have to just fix up one of your current ones instead of selling them. FSJ's aren't made to be sold anyway(believe me...I have been trying to sell my J10 for quite some time now). Craig
