I have a 1963 horizontal shaft 6 cu in Briggs and Stratton. I have no spark yet and would like to check the compression before I proceed with more repairs. I have read that Briggs and Stratton do not publish recommended compression test readings.
What ballpark reading should I be looking for? I have read online articles recommending readings from 60 - 90 psi?
What range should I consider adequate before deciding whether or not to continue investing in repairs on this engine?
Thanks
