Pulled all the plugs, they looked fine, and so did the valves up inside the ports in the heads?

I can't see any indication anywhere <yet?> that "something" or anything came out of the motor and into this turbo?

So now I've been looking around for a leakdown tester here local, I can't seem to find one?

What's the real difference between a leakdown and just a compression test?


TIA.....
