I am going to have a leakdown test preformed on a car im thinking of purchasing. Can anyone tell me what are acceptable values for the leakdown test results for an 88 with 104k miles. What about compression values. And how much should a procedure like this cost to have done?

Thanks for the help,
ADA///M
15% is ok 20%or more is iffy.150-175lbs compression.1 hr labor 65 bucks or so.
