More importantly, what is your Cub's compression. Tested dry then wet.

Even, but no more than 10% difference. Would like to see an 120 psi across the board.
I have an excuse. CRS.

The engine should be warm too. The dry compression test tests the rings to see how good they seal or if there wornout. The wet compression test seals the rings with a few drops of oil applied by us so the valves can be checked at this time for leaky seats.
I'm technically misunderstood at times i guess its been this way my whole life so why should it change now.
