Thanks
BR
I have been testing and checking out most of the combo's of valve options,
I have 5 different valves, (all DF types) and just today, found a major problem,
I have over .100" of total overall valve lengths, within these 5 valves.
With the .030+" of pressure compression, (built in headspace), when pumping,
and then adding the length differences, of almost .080"+ of headspace,
no wonder I was getting such a variance in the power readings,
with the variance in headspace totals.
I am checking some other items, more later.
Tia,
