Compression Numbers

[DonE911]

I remember reading somewhere what good compression would be for a given saw but now I can't find the info.

I bought a used 024 super that " needs new cyl and piston" and after taking a look through the exhaust port its pretty scratched up. I tested the compression and its 100 ish lbs. I was shocked at the number, but can't find anything in the manual's as to what is a "good" number.

Is there a list online that gives this info? I'd like to have the numbers on my 066's that I use for milling and my 038 super that I'm rebuilding as well.

Thanks in advance.

026 and 066 are in the area of 160 lbs acording to my gauge.

I've asked a similar question on here before, and the general consensus was anything below 110 is not good, 110-160 or so is where you want it.
