Just for documentation:

Note - this is on a cold engine. I know the leak down is more accurate on a warm engine as the rings will seal better. Plus, I forgot to hold open the throttle when doing the compression test - but I kept cranking until the pressure was stable.

Compression / Leak down % :
Cyl 1 - 180/5
Cyl 2 - 180/3
Cyl 3 - 175/3
Cyl 4 - 183/3
Cyl 5 - 185/2
Cyl 6 - 184/4
Cyl 7 - 187/6.5
Cyl 8 - 185/3
