Surprised at the quality

Just received. I was surprised by the quality. Haven't had a chance to use it yet, but I'm sure it will work fine. I appreciate the protective cap on the sensor.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Concise instructions

3-WAY EXHAUST BACKPRESSURE TEST DEVICE.

TOOL was damaged. I RECOMMEND THIS KIT TO ANY PROFESSIONAL AUTOMOTIVE TECHNICIAN. I would advise the manufacturer to provide a phone number and parts list in case we need to purchase replacement plugs or necessary parts.4-27-2013Gary A.

Pros
  • Very good price

Only used once but seemed to work well, only showing a few pounds of BP and a few more on rev up. If you drill a hole like I did, since access to my O2 sensor is a no-lift PITA, be careful not to hit the exhaust pipe overlap point where the connection is, which is a little hard to see is as it is inside tube. . My hole was right in the middle of this internal overlap (which of course I couldn't see when I drilled it) so the insert that came with it didn't quite work and I had to cut the hole to

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine

The sensor is not zeroed but I was able to fix it myself

Then I removed the clear plastic frame by tapping the edge with a plastic pry bar. I then removed the two Phillips screws from the back of the sensor and removed the innards. The adjustment was then made using small…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Update available

Not the best for accurate readings.

But I prefer the tips in this kit. The sensor started showing vacuum. If you need accurate readings, get another sensor. The seller gave me another pressure gauge, but that was also defective. The kit includes rubber plugs that fit into several different sized holes (where there may be a check valve for the AIR system). O2 sensor plate for double nut type. or screws and threads in the plug of the O2 sensor. He also has some nuts and bolts with brass washers. Don't drill a huge hole for…

Pros
  • Durable finish
Cons
  • The list will go on.
