Suspicious if he will not allow someone else to do it.... it is the primary test for the engine's condition....
No, he just didn't want to do it. He told me the starter had been removed. So even after he pulls it from the car this week there's a bit to do before a compression test could be done.

I think he's just trying to get it off his hands without any effort. I don't blame him, but I'm thinking of driving 1200 miles round trip to get it so I don't want to show up to a rusty mess.

I might take Tom up on is offer, but I'm cheap and I don't want to screw him over either.
