Default Checking 20V Compression checking question?
Doing a pre purchase inspection on a 20V 90Q this week and plan on checking the compression. I've never seen a 20V motor up close and personal. Do I need any sort of super long extension to check the compresssion. I've got a craftsman that has a ~6" one... I remember my brothers 16V 'rocco had the plugs way down deep... Thanks guys!

Default Same as the rocco...
Whatever you used to get those plugs out, you need. Plug wires are the same too.

Default Just be kind to the guys motor
It's real easy to knock some grunge and debris down the hole when futzing around in there.

Make sure you look real hard at #'s 4&5

Default Sure thing - i'm even going to bring a Torque wrench and re-torque the plugs
I doubt they were to begin with...

Default I'd be more
careful about taking them out, then putting them back in. Stripped more than a few myself.
