Re: Owned Ringlands, Compression results are in.
I did a compression test and I got the hose stuck in there too!
I used a bunch of lube too...but wtf...are you just supposed to torque it with the hose? and unscrew it with the hose? Cuz it seems pretty shitty

so here's the scoop. nothing will ever ever ever go smoothly for me, its such a ------- fact that its in the ------- encyclopedia.
I go outside to do a compression test. Run the test on the first cylinder, 155psi...Cylinder #1 owned for sure. Here's the fun of what happens next. I start unscrewing the compression tester from the cylinder, and the hose just twists. The compression tester is stuck in cylinder 1, and I cannot get it out.
Just ------- kill me. I'm getting a ------- geo. I never had problems with my metro.

The outside part is aluminum so it soaks in heat and expands super fast.
Then, the rubber part has nothing to clip onto.
So I have to test compression on a cold engine, but that yields results about 30psi lower.
