Dodge Nitro. Manual — part 85
Cylinder Compression Pressure Test. See DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING. An engine cylinder head gasket
leaking between adjacent cylinders will result in approximately a 50-70% reduction in compression pressure.
CYLINDER-TO-WATER JACKET LEAKAGE TEST
VISUAL TEST METHOD
With the engine cool, remove the coolant pressure cap. Start the engine and allow it to warm up until thermostat
opens.
If a large combustion/compression pressure leak exists, bubbles will be visible in the coolant.
COOLING SYSTEM TESTER METHOD
Install Cooling System Tester 7700 or equivalent to pressure cap neck. Start the engine and observe the tester's
pressure gauge. If gauge pulsates with every power stroke of a cylinder a combustion pressure leak is evident.
CHEMICAL TEST METHOD
Combustion leaks into the cooling system can also be checked by using Bloc-Chek Kit C-3685-A or equivalent.
Perform test following the procedures supplied with the tool kit.

FAST. EXCESSIVE PRESSURE BUILT UP, BY CONTINUOUS ENGINE
OPERATION, MUST BE RELEASED TO A SAFE PRESSURE POINT.
NEVER PERMIT PRESSURE TO EXCEED 138 kPa (20 psi).
