Igneous Rock is formed when a magma cools underground and crystallizes or when it erupts unto the surface of the ground, cools and crystallizes. Magma that erupts onto the surface is called lava. When magma cools slowly underground the crystals are large enough to see.
Readings for compression tests usually vary between 175 to 250 PSI (Pounds per Square Inch). A higher reading generally indicates better engine performance; however you should check your vehicle manual to find out what the ideal reading should be for your vehicle.
Doing a leak down test, particularly in conjunction with a compression test, will give you a great deal of additional information and allows problems to be pinpointed. The condition of the engine is determined by measuring the degree to which a cylinder with valves closed leaks air.
