Re: Ruddertwin Compression

[Tubs]

Compressing ratios in the early 20’s were barely over
4to1 because the gas was so poor so 60 lbs. isn’t bad for
a motor from that time. Getting a motor to run can free
up rings that are stuck from sitting and bring the
numbers up some but your never going to get the numbers
you find in the motors from the 50’s and be on. See if
you can get your you motor running and see how it does.
Run it for a few days and see if you notice any improvement.
If you do that would indicate that the rings are freeing up.

A "Boathouse Repair" is one thats done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.
