I'd have said more around 125psi is very healthy.

Spriddler replied
I could probably achieve that as well if I ate more pies. (But I wouldn't be very healthy).

Youtube Dave popped round and we did a compression test. 40 psi ooer! Dropped a little oil down the plug hole and got it to 100+ psi and it stayed there. It appears the rings needed a bit of lube to seal them. I know the rings are in good condition as I had the barrel off recently. Could be I didn't oil the barrel enough when I put it back on. Tomorrow is going to be a good day.

Tip:
Take a plug spanner and a drop of oil out with you. ;)
