billm Wrench Fetcher B Joined: Aug 2011 Posts: 60 florida/georiga	O.K....I am stupid, I have a 54 235 I bought as a replacement. It is sitting in a homemade cradle and I want to turn it over to check compression and eventually get it started. Question is, I don't know how to "hot wire" it to check compression and start. please help an old fool and explain the steps. Thanks
