When I look at the pressure after 1 pull both cylinders are pegged at 75lbs. If I pull around 3 times without re-setting the gauge then I can get it up around 100-110. This is my first time checking compression on a rope start outboard so I was curious if 1 pull was enough to achieve the full 2 strokes of the crank.
 
Correct compression reading is achieved after 4 or 5 pulls without zeroing gauge out or 2-4 seconds electric start.
