Odd, but makes sense. First cylinder had highest reading, then tapered down with each successive cylinder...

I think the o ring got a bit chewed up...
Someone once advised me that the spark plug seat can get mangled from all the years of plug changes by the mechanically ham-fisted!

Glad to see yours is good.
