Where do I get a Compression tester for my 3B?? I have one for my chev but I am thinking it does not work..

Thanks
 
Get a diesel compression tester. Hint: try eBay. Please do not use your gas engine tester, they aren't built to take diesel pressures.

buy snap on, i have tried a couple of others and they do not seem to read right after a few tests. i kept the one to second test the snap on...
cheers
 
If you have a compression tester for a Chev DIESEL just find the correct adaptor for the 3B and you should be good to go. You'll need an adaptor in any case unless you are fortunate enough that the one you get has the right adaptor in it already.
Like the others have said it IS crucial that you use a DIESEL tester ie: at least 500 - 600 psi readings. I think mine goes to 1000 psi.
