Thanks for all the input guys it's good to be part of this club.
I was under the impression that you had bought the car from a Mazda dealership. A rotary specific compression test is completely different then a standard compression test done on a piston engine.

I assume you're still restricted to the New Member Forum & can't post in the Regionals.
Maybe start a thread here with something like "Members near El Paso with Compression tester"?
Or anyone.
Might be worth a shot.
A Mazda dealer will charge you about $150, call around and check.

I saw an RX7 post talking about EPT Motor sports in El Paso.
Looks like a little shop, but might be worth a phone call.
