I did a compressioden check on all the cylinders in my marauder and all of them read 180 psi besides cylider 1 which read 200 psi. Are these numbers ok?

id say your good...if you did a dry check and all were between 170-220 your fine. 20 psi isnt a huge change it you put a few drops of oil in the cylinders and did the test again they will all probably be even closer.

That is about right, I would also recomend a cylinder leak down test.
