Review on Efficient Fuel Pressure Testing Tool: CTA Tools 3445 Volvo Fuel Pressure Tester+ by Jon Higdem

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Fuel leak - faulty/incorrect quick connector

I bought this product through Revain knowing it had been used. The packaging was dirty. This product was defective or has been tampered with. I hooked it up to the Schrader valve on the fuel rail on a 2002 BMW 325i to check fuel pressure. The Schroeder connection was working, which I was concerned about. However, when I started the engine, gasoline spurted all over the engine compartment. Upon further inspection of the quick connector between the gauge and the hose, I found that the male end of the connector did not fit properly into the female end of the connector. The connection was so loose that it appeared as if the original fitting had been replaced with this one. This appears to have been intentional and had nothing to do with clutch failure. This tool was extremely flammable and should never be sold/resold. Do not buy from this seller.

Pros
  • Nice appearance
Cons
  • Some imperfections
