I'd like to do a compression test on my 300D and even have a gauge for diesels. The problem is the injection pump and oit filter can keep me from getting to two of the cylinders. The kit's elbow just sticks out a little too far. What are you guys using to do this?

Frank.

define "a little too far".. if its a compression adaptor like ive seen, it has a quick disconnect in place? maybe you can remove that to get yourself a little extra room, or if you only need a fraction of an inch, maybe finding a stubby elbow at a plumbing store or grinding the existing one down a bit, or fully threading the compression adaptor in to give you an extra inch before screwing on the elbow and hose to the gauge.. without being in your situation id unno what you have already done, but maybe some of my suggestions can help you.
