Leakdown instructions for 2 strokes

[Hank W]

My new Summit leakdown tester came w/ instructions for 4 stroke engines. Where should the piston be in a 2 stroke? I'm certain it can't be bottom dead center as on a 4. Should it be at top dead center. Also if TDC will the engine want to turn w/ pressure on the cylinder? Tia, Hank:confused:

And you'll probably need to hold it there too. :cool:

Take it to TDC then just a tic cw past tdc. I put a pair of vice grips on the flywheel ring gear and aganist the starter. Nothing can move then and it is hands free.
