I’d like to test compression on the 07 5.3 V8
1.is a extension required w/LS heads? Or can I just thread in tube on it’s own?
Watched the video on top of google search he had a extension appeared to be the same length as spark plug.
I’ll be removing all spark plugs and the coils.
2.will a 8” extension be to long. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000EVYHAO/?tag=gmtnation-20
The compression tester I’m concidering (ebay) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00SKSAB8U/?tag=gmtnation-20 doe’s have 2 extenders however I want to screw extension into head and test by myself. I think the 2 extenders are a 2 person job one holds tight on head while assistant turns engine over.
Please advice on extension requirements if any.thanks
