When doing a compression test on gas engine do you start the engine?

No, the engine should not be running when performing a compression test on a gasoline engine. The spark plugs must be removed before performing the test so that the engine can crank over without starting. This allows for the measurement of the maximum compression pressure in each cylinder.
