Cold Cylinder Leakage Test
Hi All,
I have a new beta engine ready to replace my alpha but I want to give it a good going over before I fit it in.
I have a cylinder leakage tester and a compressor and I am wondering what percentage of leakage on a cold day would be considered healthy for this engine.
I know it is usually under 5% for most engines when they're hot.
Thanks.
