Gonna get myself a compression tester, not the specialist rotary one but a typical piston engine style one. Just wondering if there are any suggestions as to any that people find work well with a rotary.

Hi Adam,

You will need a tester with the decompression button on the side, I think Halfords sell the Guystone one like this

If you would like to follow the link below it will tell you hot to use a conventional tester on a Rotary  

Hope this helps
All the best Clive

yeah use a halfords one. mine was 20 quid. just remove the tyre valve type fittng out of the bottom. it just screws out and can be refitted later.
