Just as a general question to all. While a straight compression test is one
indicator of cylinder condition, it leaves a lot of unknowns. Doesn't
anyone do leak-down tests anymore to determine if you have a bad
rocker/lifter rather than just ripping the engine apart? If I had a bad
hole in a race engine, step two was always a leak-down!
