Hi gents (used loosely) cylinder pressures left bank 160 160 160 145
Right bank 100 50 50 100 so hg fooled on right again now question is this is the differential on no 4 left big enough to worry about or can I ignore it

Ideally should be no more than 10 PSI differential. If you stick a bit of oil in the low one left bank and it rises it's rings if it stays the same it's a valve.

recharged the battery spun her again on the left bank and got 160 160 160 155 so happier might have been a sticky valve who knows thanks for the info Wammers
