If you let an engine sit for more than a year, and then do a leakdown test with allowing the engine to get warm or have oil circulating, what would you expect the results to be?

Bad, inaccurate, no good. Things need to be warm so they can seat and seal correctly or there's almost no point in doing it.

That's reassuring to hear, anyone else?
