well if its going to be out of the car then just pull the oil pan and pull the pistons and re-ring them wouldnt take no time. but yea for a daily it would be ok to drive on but he may use a little oil but nothing horrible.

i was told to do a leak down test and see if its leaking anywhere… They said while a compression test will show how much its compressing, it does not show how much of that compression its holding …500hpKA240sx wrote:well if its going to be out of the car then just pull the oil pan and pull the pistons and re-ring them wouldnt take no time. but yea for a daily it would be ok to drive on but he may use a little oil but nothing horrible.
I put some oil in the last two cylinders that were 110 each and it stayed at 110 psi.. I have my compression tester hose but i think its only a 1 way valve and it only allows air flow from the motor to the gauge and not the opposite direction from the compressor to the chamber which is what i need…
