well that is reasonable results... um i doubt it would jump 30psi unless it had zippo oil in it,

in a well used engine, test without oil - see result, test with oil in chamber - see result....

if results are the same then the head is leaking a bit, if 2nd test was a lot higher then the rings are worn and head is sealing pretty well. if the results are reasonably the same then its all ok as long as there is no major variations between cylinders. ***this is a guide only***

lower reading with less cranks, why would this be? it compresses the air so the rate would not matter, ahh unless you were losing compression, escaping as cranking. gotcha.
