Ive been using the hoses from my digital compression tester for in cylinder I just don't like using them... I'm sure there's some really nice ones out there I like the steel braided 1 Bernie uses but haven't seen them online and there probably expensive... soooo I made some! I've seen the solid aluminum 1s from questionable Chinese sources and I liked the idea of the hose not expanding but after making it I found it really lacked the flex for v engines soo I made 1 of 3250 psi hydraulic hose unfortunately I could not find off the shelf hydraulic ends for the spark plug thread so it had to be customized... I'll get some pictures of it in use next time I hook it up. Also im using an ac pressure transducer (idea from Tutti57 ) which gives amazing signal quality! Unlike those crappy eBay transducers...

Nice, i'm still using my compression gauge hoses with the AC pressure sensor, looking for something better.

I'm really close to ordering this kit

The reviews are good I haven't found anyone thoroughly testing it though

That has been the topic of discussion in a couple of the Zoom meet ups on Saturday nights. Looks like a fine tool, i've been tempted myself. Perhaps Jurgen will chime in.

I have it, I use it, I like it. Almost a 1:1 clone of the WPS, one difference is the high resolution range where the max. negative pressure isĀ  2.5 psi instead of 5 psi.

There's also an informative video on you know where....
