Leakdown Testing - Chicago

Alright, I called 3 of the bigger shops in chicago to see if they could do a leakdown test for me and give me the numbers. All three said they wouldn't touch a japanese bike more than 20 years old. wtf? This isn't a crazy involved test!!

Anyone know where I could get a leakdown done and get accurate results? Anyone in Chicago have the ability to do a leakdown? I'll pay the going shop rate!

redline cycle in Skokie, look it up. www.redlinecycle.com

Emailed them to see if they'd do it. Thanks!!!

Could probably do a better job yourself. And might be less expensive to get this tool from Z1E.

Also, some automotive supply stores such as AutoZone regularly loan tools to their customers, and might have a leak down tester available.

Good Luck!

yup like patton said, go to auto zone, theyll have the tools to loan out. i just did one today on mine, but i was lucky enuff to have a buddy with a full blown shop that i could borrow from.

Buy your own leakdown tester and learn to do it yourself. Not difficult.
