Need an adapter or compression tester for a nc30?'?

I just made my own one up from an old spark plug, pull the innards out of it and braze onto a suitable tester adaptor et voila!

braze?

gas weld. its called braze. correct me if I am wrong.

lots of things are brazed - think soldering but higher temps.

I'm glad somebody understood that question.. I looked and thought wtf!?

I suggest you goto a workshop.


Buy a compression tester and then goto a workshop and take a sparkplug with you.. ask them to put that thread onto a length of brass rod with a hole through it.. you can attach your compression tester to the other end of this rod.. make sure they put a thread on the other end so you can attach it the compression tester.

Use a rubber o-ring around the seal of the brass rod.



You'll end up with something like this but that will screw into your 30

Here's one a mate of mine made for me



One end is the same as the spark plug thread the other you screw the comp tester into, its the same thread size as a car type plug so you use the standrad comp tester lead. Needs an O ring on the adapter and ist long enough to fit into the spark plug recess without skinning knuckles etc

Just what I was thinking of

And if I wasn't going off on holiday I'd offer to send it to you to borrow
