Looking at the picture it has a decompression button on the side which is ideal,
Use this in conjunction with the thread on this link but please bear in mind that this is only a guide
At the end of the day if the car fires up immediately after standing for 10mins after a run then compression should be fine,
When viewing an RX-7 more attention should be paid to the water system than compression as more engines are lost overall due to water seal problems,
Once again take it for a run, make sure there\'s no water loss when it cools down and also listen for a gurgling noises when its turned off, if the car experiences either, walk away
Hope this helps
Hey I don\'t mind what the engines like as I\'m gunna rebuild it anyway but would like to make sure it\'s that before I rip it apart lol
