Attach to Tester: Thread the M14 x 1.25 female end of the Lang Tools 73102 adapter securely onto the M14 male fitting of your compression tester hose or gauge. Hand-tighten until snug. Insert into Engine: Carefully thread the M10 x 1.00 male end of the adapter (with the compression tester attached) into the spark plug hole of the engine cylinder you wish to test. Tighten gently by hand to avoid cross-threading, then use a wrench if necessary to ensure a snug, leak-free seal. Perform Test: Follow the instructions for your specific compression tester to perform the compression test, typically by cranking the engine a few revolutions. Remove Adapter: After testing, unthread the adapter and tester assembly from the spark plug hole. Detach the adapter from your compression tester and store it properly. Repeat for Other Cylinders: If testing multiple cylinders, repeat the process for each one.BENEFITS OF USING LANG TOOLS M10-1.00 MALE X M14-1.25 FEMALE SOLID ADAPTER (73102): Streamlines your diagnostic process by providing a simple yet effective way to use your existing M14 compression tester on a broader array of small engines.
