Great value, works on small motors too (Stihl Cut-off saw)

I was worried that it wouldn't fit small motors, but it has a removable threaded insert that fits two sizes of spark plug holes.

I don't use this often, but when you need it it's nice to have. It did the job, was inexpensive, feels sturdy and I have no complaints so far! Thanks guys!Read full review

Somewhat disappointed.

The instructions say that you should perform the compression tests when the engine is hot so I ran the engine and performed the tests. But the hot engine melted the hose at the connection. I had to cut off the section of damaged hose and reinstall it in the crimped fitting.

I am not confident that hose is not leaking and a leaking hose would give low compression readings.

The positive comment that I could make is that the price was OK.

Quality and affordability

Used this on my mower. Worked great. Was easy to use, and read. I would recommend this product to anyone who needs a tester.

Seems good

Just received. Haven’t used yet but looks to be same quality as the cheap stuff at parts stores. That’s not necessarily a bad thing as long as the price is right. 👍

Good tool

Works just as it should, and includes an adapter for use with a larger size spark plug hole as well. Small size is the more common automotive and small engine thread size. Great tool for diagnosing engine problems, at a good price. Gauge will hold peak pressure until the release button is pressed.Read full review

It works

I have a couple of 2 cycle engines that I tested. So it's not used on a regular basis. I never used a different brand, so I can't give an honest opinion on the quality of this product.

Items missing or falsely stated on packaging.

No Schrader valve in the hose.
Package states:

•13" durable rubber hise with 14mm/18mm adapter.
•Easy-reading 2-1/2"diameter gauge features color-coded quadruple calibrations with 0-300psi, 20 kg/cm, 20 bar & 2000 kpa.
•6" heavy-duty stem with universal rubber cone adapter fits all plug holes.

The last part is NOT in this package.

Not worth the money just get another kit with more tips

It doesn't fit standard things like atv's, buggies or, normal gas engines. Don't waste your money with these and just get one of the other kits sold on ebay with more options in tips to save yourself the hassle.Read full review
