Leak Down Findings
Well...... Good news? and bad news!
Good news: I know now why the car only runs 12.6's
Bad News: Car won't be going to Mopars at the Valley.
I did the compression test earlier this year and they were 220 +/- 3psi over all 8 cylinders.
I did the leak down today :cry:
1-20%
2-16%
3-62%
4-22%
5-15%
6-18%
7-22%
8-32%
On all of them I could hear it leaking into the crankcase.
#3,5,6 and 8 are also leaking thru the intake.
#3 had the most leakage thru the crankcase, and #3 and 8 were bad thru the intake.
I did not climb under the car to listen in the exhaust.
So that's where I'm at now. I knew what I would find before I started, but was hoping I was wrong.
Time to sit down and think this over,and decide what to do next.
