Cheap quality sensor, arrives damaged

Product arrives damaged and unusable. The sensor has not been zeroed, presumably due to transport damage, since the sensors are sensitive. Although this one looks very badly made and very cheesy. I do not recommend buying this product from Amazon.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Functionality

Gauge not zeroed

Good quality product but gauge stuck at 150psi. I don't know how to recalibrate the sensor to zero and this will be needed in 2 days. The only reason it got 1 star. If someone would contact me to fix this issue or give me a new one, I would update my review.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Schrader valve leaks need replacing

So take the tractor apart to do a compression test. Buy a special adapter for this tool. Shut up, the shredder valve is leaking all the time. I can't read properly.

Absolutely no quality control and they knew it and sent it anyway. I have requested a replacement. Update: New block arrived, shredder valve works fine but…

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • No instructions

Nice tool but can be tweaked to make it even better

Bought to do a compression test on a 2005 Cummins. It comes with a high quality blown plastic case. Some reviews said that the pressure gauge that came with the unit was not calibrated to zero (probably due to a shipping collision). The meter I received arrived in perfect condition with the meter still zero calibrated, but as an upgrade at the time of ordering I purchased a better quality glycerin meter from Amazon (Winters PFQ Series Dual Scale 304 Stainless Steel Gauge, liquid filled, with…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
