I agree with Noel.
A static compression test is fine for an automobile, but not
an aircraft engine. Rotax wants a differential leak test, and that's what
the A&Ps also want to see to help solve your problem.

Subject: | Valve Spring Retainer Tool Loan |
Hi All,
I have a 912S that needs the (new valve spring retainer) SB 912-022 done. There
are a couple of different types of tools that are needed to compress the springs
to remove the rockers and retainers etc. I was wondering if anyone has these
or know where I can rent or borrow them. One style costs $541.00 USD new and
not sure of the alternate one that I found on the net. It was a simple bar bolted
to the head and a piece that is shaped like the two retainers side by side
and can be connected to a 3/8" breaker bar as a lever, the valves being held
in place with cord packed into the cylinder through a spark plug hole. Any thoughts
or ideas from anyone. Thank you in advance for any help available.

Differential are fine, and isolate a problem if there is one but dynamic
tests, which are what auto test are, is better than doing nothing and
will give one a pass or fail real quick. They work fine and are acceptable
for a quick test to see if there is a problem or not. I carry one with me
because no compressed air is needed in the boonies. I'm an old A&P. More
information is better than less.
