i bought a compression tester i know how to do it and all but my question is after i test it the piece that replaces the spark plug doesnt come out...this is because when you unscrew it the hose comes out and not the tester piece i dont no how else to word this lol..but if anyone has done this before and knows what im talking about can help PLEASE

 

if you cant just screw it on really tight and back it out with the hose, then i would suggest threadlocking the hose to the adapter, let it dry of course, then you should be able to back it out... next time use some anti-sieze on the threads of the adapter. better to lube it up, than to stick it in dry imo

 

yea i was tellin my buddy that was with me i should try threadlock i have it but you really think it would work? what a pain in the *** tho had to get it out with a flat head pain(because it was a 19 socket and it wouldnt fit)

 

so you got it out? or what? i just screw it on really tight before hand, and if the hose comes out of the adapter i just try screwing it onto the adapter as tight as i can then back it out slowly and more gently.

if you cant get it out loctite/threadlocker should work, but it will take a while to set or dry or whatever.

definately use some anti-sieze when you do the other cylinders.

 

ok and what does the anti seize do exactly?
