Engine Question
Hi All,
About to buy my first FD and have gone through all of the "new buyers" threads. However I still have a "noobie" question for everyone. I'm going to have the seller take the car in to his long time mechanic and run a compression test on the engine. Is there anything special that should be done for the test or can any good mechanic handle this. Also is there any other tests that I should have run prior to test driving the car. Thanks for all the input and sorry for the stupid questions but I'm just trying to be an educated consumer.

thanks for the help. the car is out in boise ID and i'm going to have the seller complete the tests before i go out to see the car. i'll definitely have a coolant test preformed as welll, i just wanted to make sure that a rotary specialist didn't have to preform these tests.
