    Found this in the dumpster at work. It has compression but I haven’t put a gauge on it yet. Even if it’s just a piece to put on the shelf I’ve always wanted a 066!

    In first with the much needed "you suck!" :)
    Awesome find! Even if it needs work, you have the base for a rebuild.

    I thought for sure it would be seized up or hole burnt in piston. I’m looking forward to working on it

    I'd totally rebuild it. Still cheaper than a new one

    Just checked and it only has 70 PSI compression. It does have a compression release that could be not sealing but hey, I found it in a dumpster!!
