Did you get any compression numbers from the shop? I've found that
what TCM considers to be "OK" compressions, wouldn't necessarily be
considered OK by a lot of mechanics. A friend had a cylinder in the
50s a couple of years after a TCM factory overhaul and they considered
it "OK".



Compressions were all in the 74-78 range, about the same as at annual a few
months before.
