Default compression test

what fuse to i need to take out before i do my compression test? under my steering wheel or underneath the hood?

do i take out the fuse, remove spark plugs, plug up the compression tester, floor the gas pedal and crank the ignition on for 5 times? correct me if im wrong please.

also, when im going to test it, do i remove the spark plugs and test one at a time, or remove all of the spark plug at once and then test it?


i try going to c-speed racing.com i think, and seems like there site is down. i know they give a breif description in it cause last week i was in there site and now i cant seem to get in.

Remove your 15A fuse under the hood. I usually do 1 spark plug and 1 wire at a time, since the car won't start with the fuse out anyway. Get in the car, go WOT, crank it 5-7 times, rinse, wash, repeat.

This has been covered several times on the board, please do a search next time

yeah its best to remove all the spark plugs, turn it over till the meter stops moving (6-7 times) and WOT is wide open throttle just so you know, push the gas pedal all the way down, I got 225 across the board on my b18c1 w/ 53000 miles I was very pleased
