how much compression
Been reviewing the posts here about compression. Did I read that it is unimportant that as long as the Gull runs, it' OK and not worth worrying about? Within reason of course? Cad someone enlighten me please?

Re: how much compression
Crankcase compression or combustion chamber compression?
What engine are you running?
40-century-102?
All will vary a bit. Some better than others. Some will start easier as a result from better compression, then again some won't.
Compression DOES matter.

Re: how much compression
All questions should include the full engine number then we will know wether your talking Morris 8 or Aston Martin Vantage.
Make it idiot proof and someone will make a better idiot.
