Which Compression Tester
« on: January 18, 2020, 04:04:19 pm »
I want to do some compression tests but cannot find a tester that has a 16mm adapter to fit the gti.

Can anyone suggest a tester that works with our cars?

Ta. And what size adaptor do I need? My spark plug removal tool is 16mm but the thread on the plug is going to be smaller isn't it?
