Hi all.
Is it possible to use an automotive compression tester on a small 25cc leaf blower motor, in this case a McCulloch GBV345 blower.
I have heard that without a Schrader valve at the end of the adapter that goes into the spark plug hole you will get a situation where the tube acts as part of the cylinder volume and thereby giving a much lower reading.
Can I simply do something simple like double the reading or am up for a new compression tester? Perhaps some adapter?
Appreciate any ideas and thoughts.
