okay guys so i attempted doing a leakdown test and this ---- dosnt make any sense

so i followed this guide here http://www.team-integra.net/sections...ArticleID=1129
it just so happends that i have the exact same leakdown tester lol

i tested each cylinder and opened the tester till it reached the "set" position
just like in this pic below..
i waited.. and it would hardly even move?


if i set it to like the line where the green starts then after like a couple mins it moves a tiny smige like a millimeter... am i doing something wrong?? or could i have like good compression?/sealage? wtf
compressor regulator was at 100psi gonna try again tomorrow maybe i should try 60psi? hmm
any ideas? lol

okay so i tried again today and this time i set the regulator at 60 psi and it was still pretty much the same i noticed like a tiny drop it went down like a millimeter but still stayed in the "set" area

i tried droping the psi at the regulator even more and noticed that at about 25 psi it droped and stayed half way on the green around the "20%" mark
i put it back to the 60psi and
got out a mechanics stethoscope and started listening to different areas intake, exhaust no sound.. put it near the dipstick area and heard some hissing so i guess my rings are leaking

I told you a long time ago its your rings:P silly man

ya well my leak down numbers are still good like 2% leakage
good numbers are supposed to be under 10% .. so its not my compression
so it must be the oil control rings or something else
