Different

compression
in
two
or

more

cylinders
usually
indicates

an

improperly
seated
valve
or
broken

piston
ring

9
Low

compression
in

cylinders
can

result
from
worn

piston
rings
This

condition

may
usually
be

accompanied

by
excessive

fuel

consumption

TEST
RESULT

If

compression
in

one
or
more

cylinders
is
low

pour
a
small

quantity

of

engine
oil
into

cylinders
through

the

spark
plug
holes
and
retest
com

pression

I

If

adding
oil
increases
the
com

pression
pressure
the
chances
are
that

rings
are

faulty

2

If

pressure
stays
low

probable

cause
is

that
valve
is

sticking
or

seating

improperly

3
If

cylinder
compression
in

any

two

adjacent
cylinders
is

low
and
if

adding
oil
does
not

help
the

compres

sian
there
is

The

ignition
circuit
consists

of
the

ignition
switch
coil

distributor

wiring
spark
plugs
and

battery

The
circuit

is

equipped
with
a

resistor

During
cranking
electrical

current

bypasses
the
resistor

thereby

connecting
the

ignition
coil

directly
to

battery
This

provides
full

battery

voltage
available
at
coil
and

keeps

ignition

voltage
as

high
as

possible

The

low

voltage
current
is

supplied

by
the

battery
or

alternator
and

flows

through
the

primary
circuit

It
consists

of
the

ignition
switch
resistor

primary
winding
of
the

ignition
coil

distributor
contact

points
condenser

and
all

connecting

The

high

is

pro

duced

by
the

ignition
coil

and
flows

through
the

secondary
circuit

When
the

ignition
switch
is

turned

on
and
the

distributor

points

are
closed

the

primary
current

flows

through
the

primary
winding
of
the

coil
and

through

to

When

are

opened

earn
the

built

up
in
the

of

moves

through

of

inducing

The

is

produced

every

open
The

flows

through
