I have a home made tester you can borrow but the only thing is you will need a air compressor which i don't have.My old one took a dump.

Thanks man. I appricate it. Whenever boostinpsi is out of surgery and has sometime to recover ill use his garage. If he doesnt mind of course. Also dont you have to rotate the engine so there is no overlap?

Thanks again. How do you rotate the engine though? Just put a large enough socket on the crank pulley bolt and rotate? Also do you have to rotate it back to where it was after your done for timing issues?
