compression check??
can i use a normal compression checker on a turbo II. if so what should it read between to let me know the money is good or not. they engine was started about 4 months ago and it had trouble staying started. didnt wanna idle by itself. but the guy that had it had the intercooler half off. so i dunno if that made a difference. it also smoked pretty bad. but he had said he had but atf in it. what exactly all does atf fix?? rotors,coolant seal,oil seal??

Yes, you can use a CR on a rotary. Same thing actually: pull plug, put in nozzle, bump car (with the EGI fuse out). It should read between 7,5-9, or 80-90 psi for you US guys.
If a car has been sitting for a long time, smoke is normally expected....but not for more than 10 minutes. If there is ATF in there, then add 5 minutes for the ATF to clear up....
