      Does anyone know what is good compression on these little air-cooled engines? I have 75 lbs but that seems low.

        I have no official specs, but it doesn’t sound unreasonable to me.

          Ok, well that makes me feel better about it.  I am just going by my old OMC engines. I do realize that a one cylinder air cooled may not be the same. It will idle down very low so maybe it is fine. Thank you for the reply.
