COmpression test, how do u stop fuel pump?

I want to do a compression test on my 12a (85 GS) and was wondering what wire/wires and where they are to shut off the fuel pump.
Thanks!
Justin

theres also a nother.....laymans way of doing compression test, just take out the trailing plugs, crank it.....you should hear three equal puffs from each rotor.

If you here 2 puffs i think it means a side seal is gone, and only one puff an apex... i dont remember how it works but if ya dont here the three.. somethings wrong lol
