My fuel system is highly modified and not anything like a stock system. Maybe it's easy to disconnect the fuel input line at the lift pump on a stock system. I am not willing to try it on mine since...

It's popping at the quick coupler? That HF kit is not very good. The fittings are nickel plated brass (should be steel for such application) and tolerance is lousy. I did extensive work to my HF kit...

We talking about a compression test, not how to stop a runaway. A fuel connection has to be broken, air will get in. If a new washer is not available, the old washer may not seal, more problems. So,...
