I'm waiting for a drive belt.
I warmed up the engine this morning and I have to use the primer bulb in order to get it to run. It will rev up with no issues but does not want to idle low enough for what I think is normal.
With the engine warm and the help of my wife, I did a compression test using two different compression meters.
After five full pulls I'm only getting 50 PSI. This engine may have the cam with the compression release on its face(?)
If so is this a normal reading or is it way out and should be 110-20 PSI?
I may test it again using a drill motor to spin it faster and test the compression.
