Will Someone help me check out my car? -- SoCal

I was wondering if someone very well verse in FCs will help me check out my car in the weekend? I work and dont have time to bring the car to a shop in the wkdays u see!

The car's a 1990 GTU. I just got it and dont know much about rotary. Want to know if there's anything wrong with the engine or drivetran that'll need immediate attention.

I'm in Oceanside and will be willing to come to you if its not toooo far away.

I'm in Mira Mesa and I'm off Sunday. I'm no guru but I've done a decent amount of work to my car and I've got an idea of what to look for. (Though I don't do mornings. Afternoon is preferable. You can't see **** at night.)

Also, check out this page...

Thank! I dont mind anytime during the wkend. Are you going to go through everything in the list when you look at the car? I would really like to find out what my engine's compression numbers are.

I can probably help out this weekend as well. I have a compression tester that I've used to check the compression on my old FC, so I'm pretty familiar with the process. Make sure the seller is comfortable with letting someone remove the spark plugs and EFI fuse, though. I'm in Scripps Ranch but could probably meet you somehwere.
