Default Weird Compression Test

well i did a compression test the other day and it was 210 across, it use to be 215 across, but for some reason it dropped 5psi, then i did it again today and its 215 in 1 and 2 and its 210 in 3 and 4, that seem strange? its done this to me before well kinda, one day i did a comp test and it was 210 across and then tried it again the same day after a lil while or the next day and it was back to 215 across, very weird to me.

i would look at the compression tester and a minor difference in testing for your problems.

as long as your within 5-10% your all good.

did you crank the same amount of times and did you do it with the plugs in or out? makes a difference...
