Default Did you do this before or after the seafoam?
how warm was the engine? Longish trip? 10 miles or so?

Default One never knows.
I still think it's jsut a cheap guage giving a false reading. That, or something was lubricating the cylinder walls..

Default Oh, I agree the 140 across all cylinders is likely a gauge, etc. issue. I was just speculating as to
why the seafoam seems to 'flow past the rings' like that.

Default Oh. Yeah, it shouldn't. If it did, then Gas would too. either that, or there was a gallon of water..
in there.. It does not take a lot of water to make that white frothy cream on the oil cap though.
