need a leak down tester... i might spend the money on snap on but dont want to... i was looking at the OTC leak down tester and it seems to look very good and come in a good case. anyone have any experience with this kit? i dont want it to break after the first use or even the 100th use. is OTC still made in USA?

If you have a regular compression tester you can make a leak down tester for about $20. You take the adapter hose that fits the spark plug hole on your head and remove the valve core out of it. Get a air pressure regulator from your favorite hardware store and get fittings to hook it up to a air hose on one end and your adapter on the other end and bam you have a compression tester.
