They are 14mm Plugs Andy! :)

I new that of course :) :) Just testing.

i bought mine from my local motor factors... only a tenner iirc. does the job a treat :)

Mine came from Machine Mart. Has the screw in fitting and also The push in rubber adaptor for other non std plug sizes.

Cant remember how much. Had it for ages. Like the Noid light set it pays for itself on one job.

Think Halfords do one that fits andy, if you are in a rush!

i have one draper and a snap on one both work aswell as each other and have different ends !

just wondering, how does one go about compression testing? its something I have never tested. Is it a fairly simple matter of plug the tester in, pumping it up and observing the results? Any pointers on how to interpret the results?
