Title: Compression test question
Post by: 500rider on September 06, 2003, 07:52:42 AM
I did a compression test on my bike but I did it with the engine cold because I had already removed the gas tank and carbs.  How will this affect the results?  Would a warm engine have higher compression?

Anybody? 8)

Hi, I did not notice difference between cold and warm compressions.  :?
