It stays at 80 psi for 12+ hours and slowly falls over a few days due to one way check valves. If I had an injector leaking I would see the pressure fall immediately. This problem has ruined many S85's in short order. It scores the cylinder wall too by washing the oil away let alone bending the connecting rod.
That's what a technician told me. Once the fuel burns off all the lubricants in the cylinder, it's done.
