This is coming from a Student who is going to school to get his A&P...

To answer the question about how long before having an A&P Relook at
your engine and co another compression check.. If I remember correctly
it should 150 hours of flight time to allow the engine to be run in and
allow the rings to reseat and break in properly.

See my followup post. Unfortunately, the cylinder had to be pulled and
sent out for service. I didn't make it 35 minutes before I started
noticing a missed beat in the engine.

The cylinder was a 500 hour old cylinder. I had a major overhaul so I am
the only one that has been flying this plane since SMOH.

Needless to say, testing it, I made the wise decision NOT to leave the
airport environment!

Look forward to seeing future posts from you! Learning everyday. I may
not be able to turn a wrench too well, but sure is nice to know what is
being done and admire y'alls expertism.

I was telling the A&P, that if it was me to pull that cylinder, I wouldn't
know what nut / bolt to crack to begin the process. He made it look so
effortless!
