I tried to do it while the engine was warm, but it took me forever to get my plugs out, so I doubt it was anywhere near operating temperatures.
I ran the test 2-3 times on each cylinder. In almost every case, the value dropped after the initial reading before stabilizing. (normal?)
On the 8th cylinder the value continued to drop with each subsequent reading and the tester had gasoline in it when I removed it.
Here are all my 1st & 2nd readings:
#1 175 170
#2 168 165
#3 161 161
#4 159 152
#5 170 169
#6 165 165
#7 171 166
#8 210 200 190 180 175
Did I flood with all the cranking? And is that why #8 was so skewed perhaps? Any interpretations of the rest of results? My engine has been smoking.
Thanks,
