So got a brand new compression tester directly from the US, works well and not too bad to get to all cylinders ....
Ok, so warmed the engine, disconnected cam sensor, pulled all plugs, opened the trhottle fully and removed up pipe. Cranked engine about 5 times for each test, tested each cylinder twice.
Results
1 - 116 and 116 PSI
2 - 115 and 115 PSI
3 - 116 and 115 PSI
4 - 114 and 115 PSI
5 - 96 and 90 PSI (this was the last one I tested so battery might be slightly worse on this one but does not look good right?)
6 - 136 and 135 PSI (this is the cylinder where I had a leaking injector so guess this indicates carbon build up?)
Would the above readings be correct, I had to let the engine cool down a bit before I could connect the compression tester as it's very tight down there as you all know.
Cylinder 6 is where I had the leaking injector
Cylinder 5 does not look good .....
Comments and suggestions please.
I also ordered a leak down tester but wont have it until end of next week with some luck, got it from the US as well.
