RE: FS Engine compression?
I've never opened up an engine before (and only rarely the hood of my car) but I can swap out the HDD on my computer and convert an aluminum camping pot into a cowl. How hard is opening up and working on a glow engine.
I have this mental image of unscrewing a couple bolts and watching the guts of the thing tumble out all over the floor never to find they way back together again -- as always seemed to be the case with all those old watches I disassembled as a kid!
In short, is working on a glow engine something you can do, even if for those of us who don't know the difference between a distributor and a starter?
