Ringed engine compression??
I have a ringed engine that has much more compression when flipped backwards. Is this normal or do I have a problem.It still has a pop when flipped counter clockwise,but won't hold the compression when turned slowly. When turned clockwise and it goes over compression the other blade will almost take your finger off,it will hold it's compression as long as youwant to hold it without bleeding off. Forgot to say this is a two stroke.
