    Well did the wet compressiontest on #3 cylinder and it was 10 psi more, so 90 wet 80 dry, is that enough to say there is a prob with ring, The end of the adapter to compresion tester was oily(normal after wet test) but had some foriegn material on it hope it wasn't steel particles. it fell off my finger before I could get to a magnet. going to test again and see if any other particles stick to end of adapter. anyway how about the 10 psi difference? Retested wet no particles, but its time to tare this ***** apart.
