When doing a wet compression test, just where do you get that motor oil and put a teaspoon through the spark plug gap?

the store

put a teaspoon through the spark plug gap

Do not put oil or teaspoons in your spark plug gap.

 


That’s not what I meant. I meant through the hole


then type what you mean


MMJoe, you are my hero.


Am I wrong? To me it seems really selfish making people to try to decipher your gibberish, and creating confusion, instead of communicating effectively in the 1st place. And it's not the 1st time for Mr. Yim.


You are not.  Maybe some smart guy should add a line to the "Read this First" section imploring people to proof read their question before submitting it.


@doc but that won’t work for members who use talk to text (especially the big man himself)..


I understand. My opinion of Talk to Text , like my opinion of start/stop and AFM, would break all the laws of public decency.


LOL If you have ideas on how to solve the language problem, I’m listening.


public shaming is the only way


Maybe make Klingon the official site language.

I always used an oil squirt can and put a couple of squirts into the cylinders, held the throttle full open and cranked it 5 or 6 times then read the gauge.

(Note: Scotty did a dry compression test before the wet test for comparison purposes.)
