Compression Test

[coralcoupe1993]

Just a side note: I know you said to disable the fuel pump relay, so no gas is being squirted, but this article makes no mention about doing that step. This is why I was having some much difficulty trying to understand the proper procedure, with so many "different" ways that people had said how to perform a compression test.

Its up to you. Unburned gas in your cylinders or no gas. Pick one. As for the article...um the car has carbs. No fuel will be injected unless you hit the gas. Just put the gauge in the spark plug hole and crank motor.....that is it.

Gas in cylinder = Don’t take 1 minute and disconnect fuel pump
No gas in cylinder = Take 1 minute disconnect fuel pump

That is the only difference!
