compression tested EA81's

Just done a comp test on my warm EA81 and got 190 in 3 pots, smidge over 180 in a fourth. Not bad for 510,000km!

Then, did another test on another EA81 of unknown kms and got similar , 180 in three pots, 170 in the fourth

Gotta be happy with that :)
Pulled the ignition fuel pump fuse to stop spark and fuel - yet heard the pump each time ?!
