No. There's no load on the engine sitting in the driveway. Get a longer hose for the tester and tape the gauge to the windshield.

Watch the pressure and see when the truck starts acting up. Below 45 is cause for concern. Below 30 and you'll be feeling it in how it runs.

5 - 10 psi drop is fine. The blown boot is not. That's why I asked about gauges earlier.
