when doing the test take the valve core out of the compression tester so it doesn't hold and build up pressure(ie you are checking each face as it makes compression). you are looking for equal pressure readings in the 120-90 psi range.
3 solid pops means all good on each face.
2 weak one solid shows a broken apex seal
1 weak 2 solid shows a broke or stuck side seal
3 weak pops means worn seals
other conditions exist beyond these but this is a guide line
Symptoms are hard starting and lose of power.
