The cylinder compression, for your Polaris ATV, is 14 to 1. The cylinder compression usually decreases as the vehicle gets older.
how to fix a cylinder #1 has low compression diagnose on 2.9 chvy colorado 2007
a leak in a head gasket could cause coolant to go into only one cylinder.
Compression ratio is the difference in the volume of a engine cylinder between when the cylinder is at it's largest volume, compared against when the cylinder is at it's smallest volume. Gasoline engines use 8:1 to 12:1 compression ratio. Diesel fuel engines use 14:1 to 25:1.
The 2000 Mustang V6 Compression is: 9.36:1 The 200 Mustang V8 Compression is: 9.0:1
then youre running about 8.5:1 compression
Bad plug? Bad wire? Bad piston or valve (do a compression test)
Worn valve, bent valve, damaged piston and/or rings, head gasket failure.
Spark plug, wire, coil, low compression, fuel injector, intake leak, etc.
Number one cylinder is located driver's side front of engine. With the # 1 piston at TDC on the compression stroke, the rotor will be pointing at #1 plug on cap.Number one cylinder is located driver's side front of engine.

No compression on all cylinders would indicate a broken cam belt. i think this motor has hydralic lifter, but for them to cause no compression it would be unlikly. when you say no do you mean none at all or low compression? a broken cam belt could be the cause if all cylinders have no compression. if the cylinders are down it could be bad valve seats (the point of contact between the valve and the head). if it is one or two cylinders it could be cracked head or cracked/broken head gasket. the only other possablilities are broken rings or broken piston. you need to know compression reading of all cylinders in a dry and wet situation. to do this 1:take the compesssion of a cylinder 2:then remove compression guage and squirt two good squirts of engine oil in the cylinder through the plug hole. 3:retake comperssion reading of cylinder. if the compression reading increases you have bad rings, if it doesnt the rings are fine. hope that helped and not confused you Geoff
WHEN INSTALING THE DISTRIBUTOR THE ROTARY BUTTON HAS TO BE POINTING AT THE NUMBER 1 CYLINDER AT TDC
