I am happy to see that the Drifter is well thought of by Australian pilots. I bought a 1988 Maxair Drifter without knowing anything about them. Since buying it I have learned very little about it here in California. I am getting the Airplane back into flying shape and am looking forward to flying it. The engine on it is the Rotax 532. I Know this engine is out of production but I want to use it as long as I can. I did a compression test and came up with 137 Lbs pressure on the mag cylinder and 140 Lbs pressure on the pto cylinder. What is the pressure supposed to be?

Hi Tomo, Thank's for the reply
The engine has not run for a couple of years. I gave the rope a few good pulls for each cylinder.
