There is a tachometer signal-wire connector on the firewall, right next to the wiper motor. I think it was included for vehicles equipped with Tachs. I wire-clamped a tach-wire to it and ran wire through a firewall hole, up by the fuse box to a mini-tach that I mounted using double-sided Velcro.
This testers are not that good for small engines mostly for bigger ones and gauge is inaccurate if using the rubber stopper attachments. I just used to see if all the compression are similar if so I would get a good ideal of the engines condition. If there was on or two that were lower than others then that's a problem. Less chance that all cylinder rings are bad. So gets you a somewhat ballpark range of engines condition
I just got em not bad for money but they feel terable in the hand. I have a couple wera ones and wow what a difference on weight comfort but then again the two I own cost as much as this set
Both combination wrenches are made in china. You say the Craftsman forge is ugly because it's made in china. How in the hell did husky look so good then it's made in china too.
I work at HF and bought one today 12/3/2022 and I wanted to see if it worked and both the units I checked it on it gave the same reading 40psi and the backpack blower I used to check it is brand new and starts on the second pull. So I guess I'm returning it for a new one
You keep saying the same shit over and over. Take them both back because they both give you a false reading. The Schrader valve has to be right at the point of what your testing.
Did you have to drill any new holes and what did you do about the wiring. i am putting a similar motor in the same mower you have any tips that could help me?
That's not the harbor freight compression tester. It's the cheapest harbor freight tester. There's also the Maddox which is more expensive that the Pittsburgh. Wander if there's much difference in them? Maddox is like $52 instead
I plan to install a tachometer in my 1991 Chevy s10 and this video is perfect. My vehicle is a manual and I'm not really a fan of listening to the sound of the engine to guess rpm and relying on the "shift" light, lol
May I ask the year and model of your truck? To me, it sounds like a stuck idle air intake. Most vehicles should start at a high idle until they warm up a bit, then they should drop to roughly 650rpm. However, it can be a wide range of things causing such a low idle. To help, I'd really need more information
I happen to own these, they are unparalleled for the price, and you have to love that the tools are ensured nonreciept needed for life on hand tools at the big HF. Good review!
Some dumb kid giving opinions about tools he never used? Son when you have wrenched with Craftsman for 50 yrs then make a video. I recommend making sewing vids
Not a big fan of harbor freight but have to admit these wire strippers I bought 6 years ago and love them. I bought many expensive other nothing came close to these. They last forever and I stripped miles of wire with them. I’m an ac installer and I really strip wire every day.
Actually husky has been around since the 20s, they’ve all just been rebranded tools. Husky actively goes out and finds industry standard and matches those specs for a lesser value
