    Please Subscribe to my channel - I have lots of machines which means going forward I will never be short of content, lots of my videos are small engine related but I do have bigger vehicles to which I also like to work on and improve.
    JUST TO NAME SOME-
    2x Land Rover Defenders, Subaru Impreza WRX Turbo Wagon, VW T4 Transporter, Ford Transit Campervan.
    5x Puch Maxi Mopeds, a Lambretta Scooter, a Yamaha MX100 motorcycle.
    Also lots and lots of garden power equipment. All this will give me years and years of content, so with all that it makes my channel well worth Subscribing to 😀
    A bit about me I grew up around engine’s as my dad was always a car mechanic and that’s how I learnt about them and liked working on engine’s. As the years have gone on my passion for working on engines has grown even more, unfortunately for me my dad slowed down working on cars when I was around 20 in the 90s, So the career I always thought I would have didn’t materialise and I become a gardener, but what do gardeners use? Power tools so that’s when I learnt all about power tools small engine, 80% of my work tools Mowers, Strimmers, Hedge Trimmers, Blowers were bought secondhand and most of them broken and I fixed them up. Most have been high end tools, Honda, Stihl, Kubota, Kawasaki, Husqvarna etc etc the list goes on I’ve worked on loads and usually managed to fix tools that were destined for the scrap heap. I have learnt so much and I pass a massive amount of that on in my videos, so watching my video could save you a small fortune in repair bills, so another great reason to subscribe to my channel.
    Going forward I have plans to faze out my day job and work with the engine stuff much, much more that’s my dream, I also like restoring machines as well. So I’m always adding more and more tools to help me along the way. So the more support I have on RUclips means that my dream may come sooner than I think it will 🤞 I’ll do my bit with the video if you can do your bit to help it could be a great journey forward, thank you for watching my channel I massively appreciate it 🙂👍

    Nice! I've purchased several compression tester kits over the years, and I've modified some of the adapters (that I would not use otherwise that come with the kit) to screw into the spark plug hole. Cheers!

    • @menditman2004
      @menditman2004  2 года назад

      Hi the challenge I had is getting the inlet from the Mityvac to seal in the plug hole, how I did it worked but I’ll experiment to find something that will screw in and seal, converted spark plug didn’t. But it’s nice to know the engine doesn’t leak before I start working on them. Thanks 🙂👍

    @KensSmallEngineRepair 2 года назад +2

    Rotate the engine and check all surfaces of the crankshaft and crank seals. The gage will go up and down as you pass the transfers and compress the air. Great job on the adapters. You’re a natural Luke!!

      Hi Rob, yes they are not cheap and not really vital but they do make life a bit easier. I’ve been repairing stuff for years without one but I do like to treat myself to a new tool now and then. I think you can buy cheaper ones around the £35 mark. Thanks for watching 🙂👍

    Luke would this come into play when u have no compression or weak compression m8

    • @menditman2004
      @menditman2004  2 года назад +1

      Hi this tests if the engine has any leaks, but it won’t tell you if you have for example worn piston rings, you need a compression tester for that (I may do a video on that) but I had good compression on my Lambretta but it wouldn’t start, that was because a crank seal had worn. So it best if you can test all , pressure & Vacuum with something like this tool and test for compression with a compression tester, then you should cover all. Hope this helps 🙂👍

      Deffo be interested in the compression test and valcum test vid m8 side bye side with a scrap engine with no chance of starting to get a better understanding as to what readings are good and 1s have got no chance

    hi Luke got a lot out of joe pace videos
    2 stroke diagnostic primary compression and vacuum testing
    Crankcase must hold a minn of 4 mins at 4 psi
    vacuum must old 6-7 hg for 3-4 mins
    taken from joe pace 5mins on the timeline

      Hi I’ll take a look, the engine did hold for quite a while as I went in for a break and left it under pressure then I did the same with vacuum, I didn’t show all that. As I said it was my first try. But I’ll check out that video to get some more tip on using this great tool. Thanks 🙂👍

      ​@@menditman2004 hi no worries Luke your way ahead of me , I am just a newbie at this, loved the way your adapted the green rubber into the spark plug ingenious, you saved me some money there no need for me hacksaw an old spark plug or buy an special adapter, Learnt a lot from your channel especially the tear down s of the leaf blowers Luke keep the videos coming have a great week .
