    So I get the car finished, start it, fires right up. I bring the idle up to 2k and let it warm up and it starts backfiring out the exhaust again. I'm thinking wtf omg fml, all of that. So I instantly break out the compression tester, the same brand new rental from oreilys I used before and threw it in #1...... 75#. Again with the fml wtf omg etc. I've got an old school tester I used to use, the kind that you have to hold in while cranking, but its a pain in the ass because it won't fit in all the spark plug holes with headers, plus you have to have two people to use it. But I figure, what the hell, so I go get my wife, tell her the drill and jam it in... blam 135#. I throw their Chinese crap back in, 75#. Their compression tester has a leak in the hose.

    Fuck




    me





    running.




    I think when testing the old rings, when I added oil and i seen the pressure rise it was sealing the leaky hose, not the rings.

    Clearly God hates me
