Look At Your 2 Stroke Engine For Compression

Check Your 2 Stroke Engine for Compression


A two stroke Engine operates on four elements: air, fuel, compression and Glimmer. Obviously, without air, fuel and Glimmer, the Engine would not hold be able to perform combustion. Compression is created by a piston as it travels upward buttoned up the cylinder and squeezes air and fuel into a rigid alloy that Testament fire with big coercion. A compression loss can be caused by a defective seal between cylinder, piston or piston rings, creating a loss of energy or force to function. Luckily, checking the Engine's compression is a mild task.


Instructions


1.3. Twist the throttle completely open and kick start the motor to move the piston(s). Kick the motor over a few times and Stare at the compression tester's gauge. A motor must have a minimum compression rating of at least 100 to 125 pounds per square inch to function properly.



Remove all of the spark plugs from the motor, and ground the spark plugs against the engine case.2. Screw a compression tester into the spark plug hole on the first cylinder to be tested.


4. Open the tester's pressure release valve momentarily to clear the gauge, and unscrew the tester from the spark plug hole. Repeat as necessary for the any remaining cylinders.
