What compression testor for saws with 10 mmm plug are you guys using?

Unfortunately caliper isn’t working. Have to get a new one.

I’ll check mine in the morning. If I remember right it’s right at the tip of mine. Definitely the more you shrink the cc size of the chamber the higher your numbers should be. Measure the plug from the end of the threads to the gasket and try to get your hose to match that.

Then there is the spark plug electrode no one considers.But yes i know what you are saying measure the
Schrader depth when you get time. Do you have a 10mm set up?

I should. Have a case with all the crap in it.

The Schrader valve should be white I believe. There is very little spring tension in them. Try one from a tire...it should read 50 psi or so lower. If it reads similar to your other valve, I'd bet the valve is bad

Best I can do for a valve comparison currently lol

I will take one out of a good working 14 mm adapter hows that?

That should work

White Schraders in all my old ones , the new problem adapter hose had a black valve, it was sitting pretty deep in there also I switched it and guess what?

Culprit

You might have saved me a lot of money ,time and trouble friend. This got by me because it was a brand new Snap On part. Boys I think its solved!

 

[twinstaged]

Glad it was simple.

 

[Lone Wolf]

Now what are we going to figure out?

 

[Lone Wolf]

Glad it was simple.

Simple stuff can be overlooked because you overthink it.

Yep

 

[Manofstihl661]

Haha I had a good thought lol. Yeh they make different resistances and such for different applications

So what is the black for?

I'm sure there are other places, but the only one I know of that can get them are NAPA. Don't order the bargain ones off ebay. None of them work, even though they're white
