thats right from mercedes....

just checked agian and those the correct numbers so I dont what numbers you got but whatever they are they are wrong.

my diesel compression tester goes to a 1000psi for the big rigs. Looks like you need to learn more about diesel engines

420-507 psi is normal for a diesel engine

looks your engine needs to be rebuilt
