How long do you crank the engine for each cyl check? The MB manual says 8
compression strokes, and I could count that on the gauge. Should I crank
longer?
You can crank longer, but on a good engine (that should reach a plateau
after 8 strokes), it shouldn't make much difference (as long as ALL the
compression reading were made with the same number of compression
strokes) and it would further complicate comparing your results with
any standard results.
