How is the best method to preform a compression test? What I mean, is it best to do a compression test while the engine is warm or cold? I have a 1998 225 hp yamaha

Re: compression

Both and compare readings. Kinda like a wet and dry test on 4-strokes.

Re: compression

really does not matter. wet test on a two stroke is not only messy its worthless. come to think of it its the same on a 4 stroke.
what your looking for is a spread of lesss than 10%.
