Iboats crew: I've got my exhaust manifolds and elbows off for replacement. Thought I'd do a compression test and leak down test while I have the easy access. Test kits will arrive tomorrow. With the exhaust manifolds/elbows off, there are several electrical ground wires which are currently disconnected from those components. Is there any harm to cranking the engine do do the cylinder compression checks with these wires disconnected? I don't want to fry any electronics needlessly.
Also, is it okay to leave the spark plug wires connected to the distributor cap? Sorry, haven't done this for a while.
Thanks!
