Did the closed throttle test by default - I forgot to open it on the first cylinder test!
Reading was 180 PSI after 4 cranks. Didn't do any other cylinders. Throttle open on the same cylinder produced 185 PSI

Cheers

Ian:

Looks perfect! Did you do a closed throttle to see what that might be? Also, good to see you warmed up the engine even!

Comments would be appreciated on the following results. I think everything looks OK

M635 154k miles (new rings at 77k miles)
Throttle valves fully open
Engine warm

Dry test (psi)

185 185 185 185 185 185 after 4/5 cranks

Wet test

Same numbers but 2 cylinders only took 3 cranks to get to 185 psi
