[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 18439, member: 82"] To test compression use the glow plug holes with an adaptor. Disconnect the fuel solenoid, you don't want it possibly starting when testing. Rotating the fly wheel won't give you enough speed to test anything. You did mention there was smoke but didn't start, ths means you are getting comopression but not sure how much. You will still need to glow it when you start unless its a real warm day, if you crank long enough and your compression is good it will eventually fire but glowing takes a lot of stress off the starter.
