Mark, call up a few of the workshops and ask to see what price they'll do it at.
I'm sure it won't be too expensive and time costing!

Depends if you have a TMIC or FMIC. Usually about $80 an hour for labour. TMIC wouldnt take very long, FMIC you have to dissassemble the plumbing for the cooler to compression test it, so longer obviously.

Why would you have to take apart a fmic?


Compression testing is done through the inlet where your spark plugs sit is it not?

yes, but try getting to your spark plugs with FMIC piping in the way, especially the cold side (well, on my set up anyway) yours may be diferent.
