Bumping this back up for discussion as it's time to tackle this issue before cruising season. Anyone have any feedback on my previous post regarding what to expect from a leakdown/compression test?
"My rules" for leakdown:
3% - typical rebuilt engine w/ rings seated 2% - excellent OEM 1% - Really good (Barton, etc.) Anything between 3 and 10% - runs OK, giving up some power Over 10% - break out the wrenches. Crop duster.
