Message: [QUOTE="freddie, post: 348952, member: 216"] Compression test.. I've done 2 rounds so far, going to let the starter cool and will repeat soon. Truck is on a battery charger set to 15A charge. Will do this next round on 125A start Edit: 5 strokes 1: 190, 185 2: 280, 275 3: 300, 290 4: 200, 225 5: 305, 280 6: 400, 350 7: 280, 260 8: 360, 310 That is according to this The drivers side is from front to back #2, #4, #6 , #8 The passenger side if front to back #1, #3, #5, #7 I can only hand tight the fitting in the glow plug port. And I did just have my injectors out and I reinstalled them without a torque wrench cause I couldn't get ahold of my buddy to borrow one. I don't think the injectors freshly seated is causing leak though, as they are brand new orings and I equally hand torqued them all, and one cylinder got to 400 I don't expect any change when I repeat the test and I think i'm doing a decent enough job to consider these results valid. I've always thought I had too much blowby but some guys just told me that it was standard for a 7.3 Sent from my Galaxy Tab [/QUOTE]
