Yes, all liquids are compressible to a degree ..... however, the change in density of liquid gasoline with pressure, is so small it's negligible.

WIKI learnt me that ..........

No, I'm not. there's no way in hell that gasoline can hydrolock an engine with the starter only. It compresses enough that it can't cause a bent rod. Water won't compress at all and will bend a rod with the force of the starter motor though. Plus the injector would have to be pretty messed up to dump THAT MUCH fuel into the cylinder anyway.

Unpossible.
