The test gave me some readings that don't really concern me. The compression for each cylinder should be between 9kgm and 12kgm. All cylinders are between 7,5 and 9 during the dry test and between 9 and 10 during the wet test (except for cylinder nr 3 which is the lowest.) I performed the test out of pure curiousity. I won't overhaul the engine right away ;-) Sparkplug nr 2 (2nd cylinder) showed signs of running to poore. I think adjusting the airscrew might solve the problem. More on that later.

Compression test Suzuki
This weekend i have performed a compression test on the suzuki. After a little warmup i checked the compression with both a dry and wet test. During the wet test you add 15cc of oil to each cylinder. This way you can check whether the lost of compression is due to the piston and cylinders or due to leaking valves.
