Default Re: 8BA Compression Test - Is it worth and an engine strip down?

those numbers are magic seen worse numbers run perfectly fine soak the cylinders in a little light oil [mmo or such] for a week clear the cylinders and take for a good run and vary the load and eng speed if it runs fine keep on going down the road. A little 2 stroke oil in the fuel helps as well about the amount you would use in a gallon to a tank and dont be frightened to use regularly as no eng likes sitting idle
