Compression testing ?

How can I test compression, the proper way and where do I get a compression gauge in BFE. Thanks

Because of price and availability issues, most of us just use a standard piston engine tester.

If you hold the bleed valve open and watch the needle bounce, you can spot the pressure peaks in sets of three.
