My comression runs from 147-155. Time for an overhaul?
Time for new rings and a hone?

Re: Time for new rings and a hone? (sloppychicken)
anyone? I don't know the high and low for compression on a 2.0L 16v.

That kind of depends.
What engine is it?
How many miles on it?
Is the gauge accurate?
Is there anything else wrong?
Have you done a cylinder leakage test? and so on.

Could just be the gauge. Are they all within that close range? Usually if they're all similar, the engine's fine and it's the measurement that's off.
Have you done a wet/leakdown test? Otherwise your rings might be fine, and the problem, if any, could be somewhere else.
