I have a Craftsman Compression Tester- is the leakdown tester an adapter to the tester?
Anyone have links to pic's of tester and maybe a how-to for proper Leakdown Testing.

No, at least I've never noticed one. I have both models & like the dual gauge better. Just my 2 cents.
I bought my single gauge at a local parts house, I believe my dual gauge came from Jegs or summit.
I'm sure a sponsor has leakdown testers. Good luck.

Quick question:
Once you get the piston to TDC and add the shop air, how long do you wait to take the final reading?
1 minute.. 5 minutes.. 20 minutes???
