Compression test

Just wondering if anyone here has the tools and experience to complete a compression test for my car running a JDM D15B VTEC.

How much would you be charging also?

Please PM me...Interested.

No need to pay anyone to do it. It's very easy to do yourself.
Pick up a compression tester from Princess Auto for like $12-$20 and then follow the instructions here.

Geez thats easy. Thanks for your help! Really appreciate it.

The only thing is that I have a D-series. Is that fuse thing located in the same location as in the B? Dont worry thats probably a dumb question, obviously I'm going to have to check and see where the fuel injection fuse is.

I love TCC
