Needing a Coolant pressure tester

[drew03cmc]

Recommend me one that is good, but isn't $250. I'm a diesel tech beginning to amass my tools that aren't sockets and wrenches. Thank you!

I used to use the stant pressure tester when I worked for CAT Diesel on highway and off highway and industrial and marine. Pick it up used for $18-20 on ebay and then purchase truck adapters as needed. Here is one listing:

Stant sells rebuild kits for low cost and it is easy to rebuild the pump. The adapters are where the cost gets high. You can find them used on ebay.

Yup, stant is the way to go. Don't forget the cap tester adapter.

I also have a stant. buying the different adapters is where it gets costly.
