yes it is fine, nothing to worry about there, whydo you think there is a problem or were you just asking if it were okay?

Default compression test??

Someone told me to do a compression test due to when cold starting it takes a long time to fire up and misfires for a bit but have now sorted it by unplugging the cold start injector fires up fine now

And was just wondering if the readings i got on compression test where ok!
