I hate to correct you but the factory compression Ratio is 9:1 on the 250ES, but you are correct they are basicaly the same engine because the 250sx came stock 9:1 also.
'Lovetoride' No 75lbs is not good.....if for some reason it does run; it sure is not as STRONG as it should be!!!

Should be 156 PSI + or - 14 psi

check valve lash, if the valves are tight, youll have poor compression.
Then check compression again.
If no change then Try a little quirt of oil in the spark plug hole, then spin the motor, with out the plug installed, to distribute the oil. Then do the compression test, if its better, then the rings are leaking.
