My 95 4Runner's compression
My 95 3.0 with 157k miles is reading:

200 200
198 205
210 205

Front

Is this abnormally high? That's the numbers if you are facing the engine from the front of the truck.

Looks like you have excellent compression, I don't know how you could have your compression be "abnormally high."

Well, I thought that it might be reading really high because of excessive carbon build up?

Could be a lot of carbon build up. Do you have any pinging?

Did you do the test with all the plugs out or just one plug at a time?

'm not sure how it was done, my friend who is a Toyota tech did it when he replaced my headgaskets a few months ago. And to answer your question Marc, it's not pigining as far as I can tell
