Good point Brian. I'll take a closer look at the fittings and compare to an injector and a glow plug.
As a start, I did a test run and got the injector hardlines off/on without any problems. While in there, I got all the glow plug 8 mm nuts off without breaking anything.
Now that I can get the glow plugs off, I'll take the compression readings there. I'll still pull the injectors to pop test and clean and also take a look at the PC's. I want to see if the balls are all there. What else should I be looking for?

Since the glow plug is much smaller, the error generated by the fitting for the tester will likely be much smaller as well.
I would suggest that the glow plug fitting would provide more accurate results.
