Default Help - compression tester stuck

My compression tester is seized in one of my spark plug holes what do i do?? When ever i try turning it its turning at a joint or something but not at the actual base this is something so little and stupid to happen and i barely threaded it in

That's odd, not sure about that. My compression tester doesn't have any type of joint at the fitting on the end of the hose.

Also I changed your thread title to be more descriptive for use with future thread searches. Please remember to make descriptive thread titles when posting.

did you cross thread it in or does your compression tester screw into different fittings for different thread pitches? if thats the case, put some thread locker on the compression tester, tighten it onto the fitting thats stuck. wait a little for the thread locker to dry then unscrew it out. that method has saved my *** a couple times before
