when you tested the cylinder pressure did you make sure to do the following?:
- make sure engine is warm
- disconnect power to the coil
- removed all spark plugs (easier on the starter)
- open the throttle blades (allows the piston to draw in a full cylinder of air on the down stroke)
- try to start for at least 3 seconds
- do the same on all 8 cylinders
- compare each cylinder, readings should be within 15% of each other
