Unless I'm reading some of the original post wrong, he does NOT know if it was working fine. In fact, based on what he found in the leakdown test, the motor is not in good shape for one that has such low (alleged) miles. 65,000 miles on a Carrera motor should be nothing. But his tests show otherwise.
