I am looking to buy a compression tester to run over my Sprint engine but wondered which ones are best for DIY and which ones do not fit down a Sprint plug tube!
The prices look to be all over the place so are there any recomendations from the group?

To check if an engine has valves and pistons in it going up and down a compression tester is fine. If you need something to diagnose a cylinder leak tester is a better investment.
