i have a saw or two (some of you know what i mean) that i would like to check the compression. can someone give me a specific name and model of a gauge that they have used? i read that automotive type testers tend to not be as accurate. i assume that they have longer hoses and that will give a lower reading that what is actually going on inside. i have looked at amazon and the ones that i see have hoses that look to be at least 8-10in. i was searching for one that might have a two or three in stub or possibly one that has several different lengths of hose.
also, what dia should the adapter be? are spark plugs universal, especially on old saws?
