If you can change a spark plug, you can do a compression test.

lol those are the prices that hold me back from going to people man, there's a guy that would have charged me 70 at an actual shop in sac though & I'm in Stockton , with those 300 I think I would just buy the tools that I would need , research it on how exactly to do it , and do it myself can't be that hard. & who knows, friends might need those tools later on & I'll have them. Thanks though [patriot]
