The other day, I was discussing a loss of power, odd miss under power, dipstick ejection issue on a friends ford. While we were running a compression test, I started thinking, how does someone do a compression test on a Volt? Every car I have even performed such a test on, I do by jumping the starter solenoid to the battery with the throttle wide open (among other steps) but since the Volt does not have a starter motor, how do you do it? I assume there is a way to tell the Voltec to close the clutch from MG1 to the engine and to rotate MG1, but after searching, I came up blank.
If I were to shade tree it, I might try installing a starter off a Cruize if it would fit.
Im not having any problems with my Volt nor do I anticipate any, just curious.
