is it necessary to remove the black metal shroud on top of the engine to get access to and pull spark plugs and check compression? it seems like dark holes and bad angles for the work to be done.

On a couple of the plugs that sit deeper in the tin, I loosen the plugs, then use a piece of rubber hose tight enough to slide over the plug to finish unscrewing it and pull it out. Same with installation, just get the plug on the hose then get it started screwing in, pull the hose off and tighten with socket.
