50$ tool to tell you what you can find out by turning the engine by hand?
We gotta build us'ns a wall to fend off'n those blue ink refugees.....Yes, I know....it just got 10 feet taller.Wait...put some clear lines on it........Roll that pump back and forth like a monkey with a coconut.....
I've given a good description on how to check compression by hand several times,... I'll tell you again. If you are turning the crank with a socket on the crank bolt and it wants to turn backwards; compression is above 375psi. It can still turn a little hard below that,.. down to 325. Then it kinda just goes around with some effort but not much. If it tries to push itself backwards it's real good. There that doesn't sound hard does it?You don't really picture me turning engines over by hand every day do you? ha. I don't work on cars every day, I don't even have a garage and work on cars outside when needed. There's a more accurate picture for you.

HAHA now seriously,I will definitely advance the timing to 1.15 before I start it next time. You were the only one to give at least approximate number, thankyou...Quote from: RunninWild on April 08, 2016, 12:18:40 pmYeah mine smoked about that much but it was probably colder outside then. I put the stock head back on.Sounds like you gave up fast, did you try to advance the timing before you put stock back?Quote from: vanbcguy on April 08, 2016, 11:52:03 amAdvance! Advance!Sounds retarded to my ear across the internet. If it improves when pulling the cold start handle (It's NOT A CHOKE!) then bumping up the timing would be prudent. The cold start handle adds a few degrees of advance when pulled.You seem to have good ear, would you say it's only running on three cyl's? Someone on FB said so but I can't hear (I am about 50%deaf so I really can't hear well)Anyway I hope timing does the trick, but if it doesn't and this really is nature of the beast I plan on installing block heater. I hate driving cold engine anyway...
