I normally use a Sears compression tester with a metric adapter. I've got metric adapters:
and the 12mm one works good with the Raptor and Warrior.

Adapters

I'm trying to track down a M10X1.0. The 10 mm adapter I have is the wrong thread pitch (it's M10X1.25).

Anybody have a source for such an adapter ?? I've searched all over
with no luck....

 

Sorry, don't have a source for an adapter. What I do in a jam is knock the guts out of a plug and weld an air fitting on the end (if your doing a leak down). If you are doing a compression you can take it to the pipe thread your compression tester has on it. Now I have quite a few adapters by doing this over the years.

 

good luck

get an extra for me when you find it

Maddog419 you like that one hu?

Ok ,ok...I'll give you three more tips. In order of importance.

#1. ALWAYS, and I do mean ALWAYS wear a comdom; no matter what she says!!!

#2. Never race anybody for money that puts their car, bike, quad or whatever down. Ex: Oh my quad is a POS, do you want to run for 50 bucks? Hey, nice car, I like your exhaust and intake, my car is all stock and runs like crap, do you want to run for a 100 spot?

#3. If you run a class with rules and cheat, always give the tech's something to catch you on. Ex: If you can't run an aluminum manifold, run one. Make it easy to see. Then they won't look at the cheater tires your running!!!! The're to excited about "catching" you with the goods on the manifold!!!

Ok...........I will give you one more. When racing for money, always look for non-stock switches in the car. Always look for hoses that just go into the intake for no reason. It's also a good idea to look under the car for braided hose that comes out of the trunk!!!

Remember; these are in order of importance!!!!
