Fred - Good point, pulling the EGI fuse does in fact kill both fuel & spark, so there is no need to disconnect the CAS that I can see. Oddly enough, the compression test procedure in my '89 FSM(ref. page C-7) states to disconnect the CAS, but it is completely silent with regards to pulling the EGI fuse - go figure!
