Hi guys,
I did a cold compression test as at the time the car did not run and the results weren't good.
Since then I have started it and did a hot compression test, all cylinders read between 220 and 225psi so I was really happy with the result.
Does this mean everything is ok or can a leak down test still show a problem?
I have not driven the car much, but it seems to run fine.
Edit:
Engine is a 6A12 Mitsubishi MIVEC. It has had a full top to bottom rebuilt in 2009 but has since been stored and only now started up.
