WD45 Diesel compression testing

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Finally getting after my WD45 D.   While I’m addressing some injector pump issues I thought it would make sense to also get some idea what condition the top end of this engine in.   A pretty good indication of that, I’m guessing, would be a compression test.   I’ll have to buy a tester, as the one I have only goes high enough to cover gas engines.  Looking on-line there seems to be any number of testers, but even more different types/configurations/sizes/types of injector inserts/adaptors. .  Anyone have experience with this and could maybe recommend and adaptor type/size that has worked for them?   Thanks in advance!   Mike
