    I wouldn't fuck around with that. The warranty guy I worked with at Optimax was the smartest/best mechanic I've ever known. You should just get a real reading.

        Who installed the motor? Must have been a certified technitian/garage, if not, void warranty? Any who they should have a pressure tester.

          i installed the motor, and it doesnt void the warranty because i had the motor inspected.

            A good TDC will toss out about 40-60 psi hot idle.

              Right around 60-70 at idle cold, as in sitting overnight. But gpse3400 is dead on for the hot idle.
