Re: Engine Issues - Leakdown tester

["Jerry C Shaw" <slowtoaccept@yahoo.com>]

I agree with those who advocate using a leak-down tester.

Mine is a Longacre, and, while expensive, is of very good quality. See
http://www.longacreracing.com/instructions/inst.asp?INSTID=25 .

As the instructions state, make sure the thing is out of gear and the wheels
blocked, just in case. Ask me how I know do do this.

Also, see http://www.xs11.com/tips/misc/misc3.shtml if you want to build your
own.
