Compression numbers. 1uzfe gurus please step in.
I recently did a compression check on my sc400.
The right side bank read 120 psi all the way across.
The left side bank read 180 psi all the way across.
the car still will not start. I have spark and fuel.
Should my car at least run with these compression numbers?

I tested each bank as a whole, One by one of course.
The plugs were fouled out pretty badly, so I replaced them with ngks and she started up for about 5 seconds.
I'm getting codes 21,24,28,31, and 78 for the fuel pump bypass.

If you did the compression test on a cold engine it won't be accurate. On the cylinders that tested low, put a tablespoon of oil in them then retest them and see if the compression increases. Ultimately you should do a leak down test.
