'Course its gonna hold steady. A compression gauge has a one-way valve on it. Once the compression enters the gauge it's kept from exiting (basically a Schrader valve in there). The gauge hold till the cows come home, but the cylinder's a different monster. Do a leak-down. Anything more than a few % warm will be a good indicator of where that oil's going.
