Dealer fudging the compression Number?? used Replacement engine

vendredi 3 avril 2015

I have a 2004 RX-8 that was in an accident and the Insurance co decided to replace damaged motor with a Used Motor from same year with 72k miles on it. I asked from compression test and they gave me the following



kg/cm2 @ 275 rpm



Rotor 1

6.7

6.8

7.0



Rotor 2

7.4

7.4

7.2



I told the dealer and Ins company that I would not except the motor, since it was in relative failing condition. The Ins co asked the dealer to try to make the compression better (no idea how) and these number came back



kg/cm @277rpm

Rotor 1

8.2

8.1

7.8



Rotor 2 @ 273rpm

7.6

7.6

7.6



I have seen picture of the readouts, so I don't doubt it was my car, but I have some suspicion that they are fudging the number to show them higher than they actually are. I don't know all the variables, or what they can do to make the compression better, but I feel as if they are trying to sneak one by me. What should I do?



A big Thank you in advance to anyone who can help.



BTW, in Ohio and the altitude at the dealer is 1130 ft above sea level.
