Re: Just a quick two thumbs up !!
somethings happening on #6 and #7 on stbd engines, the engines were NOT hot when this was done...engines were run for approx 5 mins then this test was performed...unsure if its a valve issue or what

Re: Just a quick two thumbs up !!
they potential buyer ran away once he saw the results so MArc never went any further to determine if it was leaking thru exhaust, intake, manifold etc...nor did he do a compression test.
