How much compression should a Poulan chainsaw have?

Normal compression readings are between 90 and 110 psi for a two-cycle engine like Poulan saws use.

What should compression be on chainsaw?

around 110 psi

According to Stihl USA, the minimum compression reading for their chainsaws should be around 110 psi. Some individual engines may run a bit higher or lower and the temperature of the tool can affect readings. A cool chainsaw runs low, while a hot engine that's been running for awhile will usually be higher.

How much compression does a 2 stroke need to run?

Minimum 2 Stroke Compression Chart

A 50cc and 65cc 2 stroke dirt bike should have a minimum compression of 120 PSI to run properly. Good compression is about 150 PSI. An 85cc 2 stroke dirt bike should have a minimum compression of 130 PSI to run well. Good compression is 150-160 PSI.

What is good compression for a small engine?

90 pounds per square inch

Most small engines require at least 90 pounds per square inch (PSI) of compression when hot, and 100 PSI when cold. If air is leaking somewhere in the engine, you will notice a drop in compression.
