I own a diesel engine compression tester made by Tool Aid. The GM diesel adaptor goes in the glow plug with a 10mm x 1.00 size (4.3, 5.7, 6.2, 6.5 liter engines). The M-B adaptors are for two different types of glow plugs: 12mm x 1.25 and 18mm x 1.50; and the adaptor for the injection nozzle is 24mm x 2.0.

Perhaps you can find the correct size adaptor that will fit both the M-B and the compression tester you are looking at. $30 is really cheap for a diesel compression tester, the Tool Aid cost me $110 with five adpators and a nice case.

Good Luck!
Tom
