about an hour labour or so depanding on the engine, on a boxer engine it might be a little more depanding on how hard it is to get at the plugs.
There is not to many places other then the dealer that have the testers.

a leak down tester is about a $1000 so not too many places other then dealers will spend then money on a tool that gets used so little.
you could phone around and find out if they have a tester

I bought a leak down tester for around $60 from NAPA (the one on 16ave) ;) Its not $1000.
The only thing is that you need is a supply of shop air though....
