Compression test

Where can I go (for not too much $$$) to get a compression test done?

I'm in Sydney.

Cheers.

Any workshop really should be able to do one, last one we had done was just at a Honda dealer

get a leak down check aswell if you are curious abotu your internals conditions

All they do is take out the spark plug, insert a reader and turn the crank.

Should cost much at all.

Yeahh I know.

I was wondering who would do it and how much.

woops need to check what I write more carefully. Compression testing shouldn't cost much at all. Any machanic's or tuning shop should be able to do it for you.

Can't help you NSW guys about where, but know it's very cheap.
