can i accuratly check my compression with a generic compression tester?
is there something i need to do differently with it, i heard someone mention removing a valve or something, im still not clear on it all... i did the poor mans test on it, but the results were kinda ify so i want some numbers...
could someone tell me how to use a generic (crappy walmart) compression tester on my N/A 13b S4?

 

well, i guess i will just give it a shot the old fashioned way, since no one wanted to gimme some tips..

 

You have to take the schraeder valve off and watch the needle bounce. It should at least go to 90 psi.

 

oh ok, yeah that's what i read before, just wanted to clear it all up before i got out there and did it. thanks man

Thanks for the input guys, and Kevin.. if my compression test goes as badly as im expecting it to... i might be sending you an engine in the next month or so (i know you got a work load on ya so i will wait a while)
