I am trying to understand how to use my new leak down testing tool from HarborFreight. I am trying to see if my rings are sealing on my rebuilt motor. I hook everything up and I can hear the air through the oil filler but the gauge reads 0% leakage? I can hear it leaking so I know it is not zero - is the tool broken? (it is HF after all) What is the typical pressure when zeroing out the % leak down gauge? Mine reads 12 psi - seems low but the pressure may be irrelevant when determining leak down?
Thanks! |
