Can anyone do a Compression Test IN NJ?!

I was wondering if anyone on the forum has the equipment to do a compression test and knows what they're doing or knows where i could go for less than $250 (mazda price) which is bullshit imo. I live in north jersey so if anyone lives near, that could help me out i'd really appreciate it!! I have an 05 Shinka btw

Cost me $100-$105 when I had mine a couple months ago.

Go Canadian prices?!

Yes, Canadian prices are applied in New Jersey :p


I paid nothing for two of my compression tests, $90 for a 3rd, and $140 for a 4th. All in RI/MA.

Have you tried calling around to other dealers?

Not me. I DO get onto 280 headed west just before 21, so cross over the grated bridge there, but I didn't leave the office in Manhattan until ~6pm Monday.

And I had my wife's blue Mazda2 that day
