I have an engine I need to do a compression check on... The engine is about 2 feet off the ground, each side of the engine mount bar is supported on blocks and there are two jack stands under the rear of the case. I have a spare tranny and starter to use...
Anyways, will this be safe? Or not a good idea? |
