Hi Triumph List,

I've sold my Midget and I'm going to look at a couple of Spitfires on
Saturday (a 73 and a 75). One question. What kind of compression reading
should I get on a 73 and a 75 Spitfire. I'm taking a gauge and want to
measure the pressure on each cylinder to get an idea of the relative
condition of the engine in each of these cars. Thanks a lot!
