Ok, well mostly because it tells me that I'm getting 160 psi compression instead of 100 psi like my dad's old one was telling me on my 051.

Nevermind that the old one had the valve about 4" up the tube (thus lowering the reading) and that I've replaced what I think was a faulty decompression button since I last tested it with the old gauge.

But for $25 at Advanced Auto Parts, I'm a happy camper (and also glad I don't have to mess with my piston and rings).
