Thought I'd put this here too, it's in the other compression test post.

FYI: From the 2005 Scion tC Repair Manual

Compression pressure: 1,300 kPa (189 psi)

Minimum pressure: 1,000 kPa (145 psi)

Difference between each cylinder: 100 kPa (14 psi)

yeah, when he cranked it 8 times - you're only supposed to crank like 3 or 4 times.
