Default RE: compression only in reverse way

I had this with a TT91FS once -- but it had *zero* compression when turned clockwise and plenty when turned counterclockwise.
By that you mean clockwise is the correct direction? Some will refer to the direction as they face the engine. You flip the prop counterclockwise as you face the engine, but this actually rotates clockwise. This effect is not common with four stokes, but common with desaxe (spelling?) or off center bored two strokes.
