+1..i copy&past a how-to i did ago long time to my crashed vti 
it's in spanish. but pics will be very intelligible for u.
Mi probador de compresion o compression tester y llave para bujias.
Primero quitamos la tapa que cubre los cable de bujias.
y tambien los cables.
Y ahora quitamos las bujias.
Ahora quitamos el fusibly de ignition de combustible para evitar que los inyectores abran y den gasolina cuando estemos haciendo la compresion...
Ahora , el motor debe estar caliente (mitad de aguja) , y con el acelerador a fondo damos al contacto y hacemos como si arrancasemos el coche sobre unas 4-5 veces que gire el motor.
Los resultados fueron .

Nice pictures, but you also should disconnect the main relay (so you don't have spark and fuel, which can flood the motor, and ---- your dizzy). The main relay is easy to get to, around the kick-panel area, near the fuse-box.
Other thing it forgot to mention was you should wire the TB open and pull off the intake to get the most air into the motor for the test. I would also do it when the motor is at least a little warmed-up since some headgaskets won't even leak until the engine is up to temp.
