Yes, positive.

I will.... but I was VERY careful the first time, and then did it again for good measure.

as far as your compression numbers, are you sure you have the valve timing correct for both cylinders? maybe the valves are never closing at the same time resulting in low compression numbers?

I think it is more likely oil from the towers that was in there from when I originally injected it, rather than being forced through..... I used a small oral syringe, so I did get some on the walls. I also used brand seals for the spark plugs when I did the valves.
I would be surprised if I got the timing wrong.... but theoretically it is always possible.
