    Excellent video! Using critical thinking skills and evidence collection is becoming a lost art. I found this video in the search for tips... regarding the cause of a low compression test on one cylinder of a EVO Harley. :) Subscribed to the channel, keep up the great work!

    I bought a cheapo from amazon and struggling to understand the setup - Im not getting a reading on the "drop" gauge when the first gauge is outside 25-35 psi. You set yours to 100 (easy for the math etc). I have my compressor set to 100 - could a 2nd inline regulator cause this issue? or it there something else im missing?
    It seems the cheap kits show you a result based on the "balance" between the gauges, however at a much lower psi rating than the pricier ones (and recommended psi).
    I presume one needs a constant flow of air coming in from the compressor to the kit but im not sure why mine sucks so bad? Just saw a guy make his own and it went to 100psi on the first, the 2nd was just another gauge showing the loss..
    could I not then set my compressor at 100 and plumb an inline compression gauge to read the "loss"?

    How does the "gas being left on" bend a rod? gas left in while running? or the petcock? (vacuum operated)

    Working on my SV1000. HF leak down tester is junk. Cam timing is never like the service manual either. New cam chain ordered. No specs in the manual for a stretched cam chain either.
