I do not have a compression guage. Can I by one at any auto parts store? Are there different types and varieties? What does one cost?<br /><br /> I have a 1976 55HP Chrysler. It has 1 carb and 2 cylinders. Can I just take the plug that is not being checked out but leave it hooked up to the spark plug wire? After I warm the engine up, do I need to crank the engine with the throttle wide open (but not in gear of course)? Anything else I need to know?<br /><br />Thanks <br /><br />Shane
