[QUOTE="airshot, post: 507934, member: 1183"] In my day, the rule of thumb was the cylinders had to be within 10% of each other. In your case that would be 15 lbs, which you are well within. As far as your mechanic goes, probably just didn't want to tackle the job as his end cost would be more than the motor is worth. He knows that the customer would be PO'd, so just pass on the repair.
