Wow thanks man! Thats a big help.
So according to #9 my compression is ok. Considering my highest is 185 (185 x 70%=129.5) And, my lowest was 155.When i did my compression test i had all plugs out and had it floored while i cranked it 5 strokes(Now i know its supposed to be 4). So when i do my wet test with the plugs in the other cylinders, how should i disable the ignition and fuel systems? pull fuses?
Also my boss has a bore scope i could borrow i think. Its defiently not long enough to go through my longtubes but maybe the intake. Would it be beneficial to look inside the spark plug hole?
Can i do a wet test with the other plugs in the block? Its time consuming to take these plugs out do to limited space between the wheel wells.
Also, should i be worried about it losing all its compression anytime soon? I dont think it would for a while at least. But anything can happen. Just wondering if youve seen something like this before and how long it lasted.
I did a compression test today…
1-155
2-180
3-180
4-180
5-185
6-175
7-175
8-185I rechecked cylinder number 1 a couple of times and still got 155.
I then took out the schrader valve in the compression tester hose and put her at TDC and i had air coming up through the oil filler cap.
I’ll try a wet test today to see if its the rings.
What do you think? should i be worried with only 1 cylinder a little lower than the others?
