Cheap compression tester, looks decent, we'll see..
Hey everyone, While carousing about on the famous site at the bay, I came across this, compared it to harbor freight's price, and its cheaper with more stuff in it. It looks decent, and their feedback looked like buyers were satisfied, so for that price, I said what the heck, and bought one to try out (I waited for the auction to end so I got it for the cheaper price.) I'll post back when I get it and let you all know what I think of it. This person has a lot of these for sale. Thought I'd let everyone know about it.

It's the same kit. I have one but haven't used it yet.

It's $25 at Harbor Freight... and harbor Freight frequently has sales.

Thats the same kit that I got from Harbor Freight. It works good. It probably won't be a long lasting tool if you use it all the time. But like with most HF tool occational use is okay.

Got a cheap one on ebay and the quick connect kept popping off at about 350 psi, so I eliminated it with pieces from another compression tester. you get what you pay for. cheap crap is cheap crap.

I have what looks like the identical setup from HF which I got on sale for $17. Mine seems to be well made and well finished and works well. No problems with the quick disconnect leaking or popping off. The only issue I have is the adapter which is supposed to fit the Ford 7.3 is too long and will not work.
