I want to do a compression test on my SpeedSix and just wanted to know a few things before....
Does the S6 support "clear flood mode".. so kicking down the throttle pedal while cranking to open the throttle valves completely what will cut the fule injection?
Or do I have to interrupt the injection system? If so, what is the easiest way to do it?
What's the best way to disconnect the ignition coil/system for the test?

Cause for all this is, that the spark plug on cylinder 1 is wet from fuel and I want to make sure that compression on this cylinder is normal and not causing this problem... before I start to examine the valves, injector etc...
Cables and spark plugs seem to be fine so far, but will check them throughly again.

I`d guess that if you remove the fuel pump fuse, and disconnect the coil you`ll be fine, unless anyone knows otherwise.
