Hey i have two probems..Any Ideas?
First Problem is my car Floods every freaking morning and i have to shut off the fuel Pump Till it catches then turn the fuel back on...Started doing it since it got cold out...Could it be a sensor..Or cold idle up to high? Also Second Problem is my power Door locks wont let go killing my battery..when i flip down the drivers door lock it locks the other door too..It used to let up in a split second but it just stayed there not now letting up and it will kill the battery by the morning...thanks 88 glx rx7 all stock.. stock motor 134k

you could buy a cheaper compression tester and remove the check valve..
edit: didnt see you have a tester. remove the check valve and do a compression test! it wont hold the reading, you have to have a friend crank the car. where the needle tops out at, is what your compression is.

Just do the compression test as you would a piston motor. Put it in the plug holes on front and then rear, have a friend crank it with the pedal floored, see what compression it can build to max. Over 100 is good, 90's is alright, 80's is iffy, less than 80 is bad.
