Cranking compression with vary with the gauge attached since this is such a
small cc combustion chamber in these motors.
Also varies with RAD.
I used to wonder why my readings were higher in the winter. Duh

Eric,
The compression ratio is listed in the manual as 6.8:1
I searched my shop manual for compression values, but I could not find any.
My experience tells me that anything over 120PSI should work good, plus the
two cylinders should be within 10% of each other.
