[QUOTE="KMixson, post: 395933, member: 432"] In my experience testing at WOT creates a little more compression due to more fuel being in the cylinder sealing the the rings better. That is fine as long as you have good compression and a uniform compression on all cylinders. Testing with the throttle closed will have less compression but it still should read high enough to be acceptable to start the motor. If your rings are worn and or cylinder liners scratched you may have a low compression with throttle closed and good compression at WOT due to fuel sealing the rings/scratches. [/QUOTE]
