Re: Cranking vs Running compression

Hello and thank you for the post There is a lot to consider here but this depends upon what you are looking for. For a compression test alone, then Cranking at WOT is fine (revealing Peak pressure and compression tower formation) However (and far more conclusive) for detailed analysis of the cylinde...

Re: Running compression test with the Pico Transducer

Hello and welcome to the forum.

Could you post the psdata file of the offending cylinder with 60 % leak down via the exhaust valve?

Would you have a similar capture from an adjacent "Good" cylinder too?

These will help to assist you with pressure analysis techniques

Take care.....Steve
