Engine Compression Test
« on: January 09, 2011, 02:15:11 PM »
Hello,
I want to share this article about the Engine Compression Test i made in my Tracker Gen 1 but could help or any engine you just need to check the Cylinder compression specification for your engine.

Two things ...

First - if the engine is fuel injected, you might want to disconnect the fuel injector harness as well as the distributor
Second - you need to block the throttle so it's wide open.

On a FI engine, when the throttle is wide open WOT at cranking speeds
it triggers the Flood Clear Mode, so no fuel is injected
