Fancy new gadget!
Hey Guys,
Check it out. I'm now the proud owner of a TR-01 Rotary Engine Compression Tester!
I haven't tried it out yet, that'll probably happen on Sunday. I plan to take a comp test of my car, Naomi (which I've done with the mazda tester twice before so I know roughly what to expect) and then take some readings from the engine I got from DarkFrost for the project car, Keiko.
I'm still having trouble starting it, but this weekend I plan to swap the starter and battery cables over from Naomi to get the cranking speed up, and adjust the timing because it's off by like 5*

i might be in for one.. then charge locals a lil fee if they wanna get their engines tested. it might end up paying for itself!

$251USD shipped to Canada - that was the group buy price. I don't know if the group buy is still going on, it might be more expensive now.
I'll post pictures if I get a chance to use it on the weekend
