Stumbled up on this and found it of interest; anyone else heard of this or ever tried one and is it a viable option to the Miller Tool???
Screws into Glow Plug hole to perform a compression test!
Looks like a viable alternative method and price is certainly reasonable for the tools?
They also list different GP adaptors for many other diesel engines...
Might be of use to some members on this forum? :wink:

Lang tools including these are available on Amazon, Ebay, and direct from MRO Tools.
TU-15-2A Lang Diesel Adapter M10-1.00 Glow Plug
use with the TU-15 Lang diesel compression tester.

Plug is an adapter for:
Jeep (2005) Liberty 2.8L

Man, I would make triply sure that absolutely NO FUEL is being introduced by the injectors, or that gauge would grenade!! Such as pulling the fuse, the relay, and disconnecting all the injector connectors!

Well I would hope anyone using this type of method would be intelligent enough to know to disable the injectors!!! :roll:

I do as well, but if everything I hoped for came true, the world would be a much different place.

Less than 10 bucks for the adapter, 'ask for price' on the gauge. If I buy the kit with gauge and some popular adapters, it's about $131 and still need the Vm 2.8 one. So my guess would be less than 100 for just the gauge. I suppose I could finagle up some of my old gauge set and leakdown tester to plumb into this. Thanks for sharing this WW
