Sorry, that must have been frustrating. I have two ideas. one about technique and one about instrumentation. 1) If you don't combine engine-on P&G with engine-appropriate DWL you won't get the best results. Your margin between idle and in gear is closer, of course, at low speeds. Without gauges, you are mostly guessing at load, and if your guess is off... well. I know from driving my wife's auto trans and trying engine on P&G that the instrumentation is critical. So... (2) How about getting yourself an aftermarket tach and vacuum gauge?
