Mission Creep on a D-150

You clearly don't understand what I was saying.
Static compression doesn't mean squat if it's sitting there not running you can pull the cylinder head off of it. Because static compression is just a couple of numbers added or subtracted or multiplied or divided to come up with a guesstimate. You never mentioned a single word about doing a compression test an the distributor being involved not until now. As I said you crack me up. LOL
Just because I didn't say it, doesn't mean I didn't mean it that way. Some things I take for granted that I don't need to explain. I see I was wrong. Static compression has zip to do with cylinder pressure, which is what I was discussing. Crack you up or not, I think we just got our wires crossed.
