Re: Quick Compression Check Question
You'll want to pull the rope in succession ~4 times for each cylinder...unless your using a 20' rope and have gorilla arms.
Those are high compression motors and often run up to 150psi.
You will get lower readings by hand, but still usable, since your technique will be similar.
Warm reading are more accurate than cold. Since you have a tester, I'm sure you know the basics.
If your using a tester with a hose (90% of them), it does take time to pressurize due to the added volume.
I'll presume your tester has a Shrader valve at the opening to the hose.
Let us know how you make out.
