Where were you a week ago? wasn't this just covered? If I remember correctly OTC is the maker of SnapOn, Matco, and another high end tool supplier's comp. testers. Ebay for around $50 or so and comes with several adaptors. Forgot model #.

Not everyone can or is willing to read every thread ever posted on here... though a person could use the search function if they didn't want to wait for a response. :msp_wink:The Craftsman looks nice. May have to pick one up.

I picked up the OTC motorcycle compression tester a while ago. It works well and comes with a bunch of adapters and won't break the bank.

Bought mine from Bailey's on line. Works just fine and cheaper than some of the others.

Howdy All,
I saw this thread going so I thought it would be a good place to throw a bone. I got a hold of 19 of the newstyle Husqvarna compression testers at a real good price.
I think we're trying to move these on some other websites also but, not as low of a price.

Bailey's - HUSQVARNA COMPRESSION GAUGE 14MM

I have the sears model, and it is reliable. However I probably would have bought the one from Baileys. Great price!

And for the builders going for high compression... Diesel compression tester goes to 1000 psi :msp_biggrin:
