Hello,
My CB 125 k5 (France) does not start. I did a cold compression check and one cylinder gives about 120psi which is good, and the other have no psi whatsoever.
I didn't quite understand how it could read 0, and then I added some oil in the cylinder as to check if that would seal the piston (maybe worn piston rings) and I would get some compression. So now instead of 0 I got a maximum of 210 psi.
Does anyone know how this could be? Could I conclude from this my piston rings are worn?
Is this the reason that the engine won't start? As I thought the engine could run on 1 cylinder, but maybe more difficult to start it on 1..
Any help appreciated!
