I picked up a Bandit with a "seized motor"
But I can crank it over. I'd like to do a compression test but my repair manual says to do a compression test only when fully warmed up .
The carbs are old and dirty so I'd rather not go through all the effort of trying to get this motor running (if it will at all) before doing a compression test.
Is it safe to do a compression test with the motor cold? If so, what numbers should I be looking for? Repair manual says a warm motor should be over 114.
