        Depends on your budget and what you consider “top of the line” to be. For my money, KD makes a diesel compression tester that goes for a little under $100 online. (I’d figure $100 or thereabouts with shipping.) I work in a shop and I’ve got some KD stuff in my box. It doesn’t get used much, but it seems to be good quality. Downside to this tester is it doesn’t seem to come with a lot of different fittings, so there’s that…

          Thanks for the info. I’ll look into one. 100 bucks isn’t a bad deal of its decent quality.
