[QUOTE="thomas91169, post: 7670223, member: 40530"] UPDATE: was at a buddies house earlier, big car guy, has a lift (ding midpipe swap is cake with one of these!), every tool imaginable, super knowledgeable. Was talking about the whole compression situation, decided to do a leakdown test so i can have a second set of eyes seeing what i saw when i did it. pressurized the tester to 0% on the leakdown gauge, set it and no leaks. nothing. not even from the exhaust. he was like "umm, you said this has low compression, not from the looks of it!" so i was like "yeah, 130 on that cylinder" and stuck the compression gauge on the end, pulled the coils and proceeded to do a compression test just to show him. 160psi (on the cylinder that i pulled 130psi from), not to mention it was on a cool motor. so wtf. either i somehow wasnt doing that cylinder right (maybe not screwing the tool in enough?) or i have a self-healing motor.
