Looking to get some test equipment like vacuum/pressure, compression, etc so I can do some basic repairing,troubleshooting and preventitive stuff.

Also looking at a spark gap tester. I have seen them in single and multiple. My question is what is prefered, a single doing one cylinder at a time or a multiple doing all cyclinders at once?

Re: Testing Equipment

single is fine, just for regular testing, but when looking for misfiring, multiple is easier.

Re: Testing Equipment

Thanks Tashasdaddy, I guess getting a single tester to start with would be a good point to begin. Could alway get a multiple down the road in the event I'm trying to diagnose a missing situation.
