Are the $29.95 compression testers available at discount parts stores (sealed up in a container that it takes bolt cutters and a concrete saw to get in to) adequate for the occasional barnyard tinkerer ?

I just bought the $30 model SunTest from NAPA. It has a double threaded head for both 14 and 18mm heads. It fit my NAA nicely and worked well. The scale is in increments of 5 psi, so it is adiquate for most tasks.

OUTim,

I can tell you from experience that the type of compression tester you want is the screw-in type, not the Rubber tipped type. Regardless if its $30 or $50 it should have some close tolerences. Just don't drop your tester, I dropped mine a while back and the thing never read correctly after that.
