compression test
should you remove all the spark plugs do get an accurate result from a
compression test, or is 1 at time ok?

If you're doing a cranking compresion test, all of the sparkplugs
would be removed, throttle wide open and fuel and spark delivery
disabled.
If you're doing a running compression test, only the sparkplug
for the cylinder being tested would be removed.
If you're doing it electronically, no sparkplugs need to be
removed.

It's best to test hot, one at a time. If plug access is tough, than test
all cylinders cold, and realize readings could be bogus.
