1.2 isn't very much at all. Hopefully it's showing worse now, otherwise the readings are starting to sound useless.
Never really went much higher than that. I think fuel-wise, it was pushing out the fuel needed at idle. On the oil side, I had a ton of oil ready, so it was never starving for oil. Unfortunately, rotational velocity tests are only good at idle, which is the biggest limiting factor of the test.

I didn't think about big oil being able to compensate for the link. Thanks.

Hopefully someone can hook Curtis up.

Hope you get a donation soon, Curtis. At least you were able to find the problem.
