i wanted to do a compression test last night on my 83 220 x last night. i pulled out my snap on test kit but did not have the proper adapter to fit the tinny plug hole.

where can i get the proper adapter?

thanks

I ended up getting mine from Summit racing. It was easier than running all over town to every parts store and finding out they don't seel the adapter but will sell mee another complete tester with the 12mm fitting.

you could probably get one off the Snap On truck.

I just took an old spark plug, smash the porcelin out of it, weld a nipple to the top of the hex part and bingo, good to go. my comp tester works with air tool nipples which is what i used. Easy-cheap
