Functional Overview
The Mityvac Digital Diesel Compression Tester is designed
for testing the compression produced in the cylinders of a
diesel engine. It can measure, display, and store compression values of up to 1,000 psi (69 bar) (6,900 kPa) for up to
12 cylinders.
When using this tester to perform a compression test on a
cylinder, the current peak compression value is displayed
in larger numbers at the center of the LCD. This value
is automatically transferred to memory, and displayed in
smaller numbers at the bottom right of the display. When
the pressure relief button is depressed, the current compression reading returns to zero, but the peak value is
retained in memory and continues to be displayed in the
bottom right corner of the LCD. Repeated tests can be
run on the same cylinder, and the new current peak value
will be displayed by the larger numbers. This new peak
value will not be retained in memory unless it surpasses
the value of the previous test, or the CLEAR button was
pressed to erase the old value from memory.
Peak compression values can be stored for up to 12 cylinders. Each value is displayed on the LCD along with the
cylinder number. During and/or after completion of testing
all cylinders, the peak values can be reviewed by pressing the CYLINDER button to scroll through the memory.
Individual peak values can be erased from memory by
pressing the CLEAR button when the appropriate cylinder
and value are displayed. Pressing the CLEAR button for 3
seconds at any time will clear the memory for all cylinders
and return the display to cylinder 1.
Before Running a Compression Test
• To achieve accurate results, the engine should be run
until it reaches normal operating temperature, prior to
testing. Testing should be completed before the engine
cools.
• Ensure battery(s) are fully charged to provide power for
adequate cranking speed. Check engine manufacturer’s specifications to determine if a minimum cranking
speed is required. It is recommended that a charger be
connected, or a backup or auxiliary battery be used to
maintain required cranking speed.
Performing a Compression Test
Diesel engines utilize either a direct or indirect fuel injection system. Direct injection engines inject fuel directly into
the cylinder, while indirect injection engines use a small
pre-combustion chamber. Spark plugs are not required for
either type of diesel engine. Instead, the high compression
achieved in a diesel engine cylinder heats the air, which
ignites the fuel. However, a cold diesel engine requires a
means to preheat the air in the cylinder, pre-combustion
chamber or manifold, to facilitate starting. This is most often accomplished with a glow plug. Depending on whether
the engine has a glow plug, and its location, will determine
whether a glow plug adapter or injector adapter is required
for compression testing. The best way to determine the
type of adapter to use, and the appropriate test method is
to consult a service manual. A full line of glow plug and
injector style test adapters for most makes and models of
vehicles and heavy equipment are available from Mityvac.
Testing with Glow Plug Adapter
Prior to starting a compression test, consult manufacturer’s
specifications and/or appropriate service manual to determine the correct procedure for performing the compression
test. Familiarize yourself with the proper specifications and
any unique testing procedures, and follow the recommended procedures for removing and installing the glow plugs.
1. Put the vehicle in neutral or park, and set the parking
brake.
2. Run the engine to normal operating temperature.
3. Ensure the battery has a full charge and/or connect a
charger or auxiliary battery.
4. Thoroughly clean the area around each glow plug to
eliminate any chance of dirt or contamination entering
the engine.
5. Remove the glow plugs, label them by cylinder number,
and protect them from damage.
6. Disable the fuel supply system.
7. Select the appropriate glow plug adapter and install it
into cylinder 1.
8. Turn on the compression tester
UNIT/OFF button. Press and hold the CLEAR button
for at least three (3) seconds to clear the memory and
return the current cylinder indication to cylinder 1.
9. Check to see that the proper unit of measure, PSI, BAR,
or KPA, is displayed in the lower left corner of the LCD.
If not, press the ON/UNIT/OFF button until the desired
unit of measure is indicated.
10. Connect the tester to the glow plug adapter installed in
cylinder 1.
by pressing the ON/
Page Number - 4 Form 822857
11. While watching the gauge, crank the engine and count
the compression strokes by listening to one of the adjacent cylinders. Watch for the pressure to peak around
6 to 10 strokes, then stop cranking. Make note of the
number of strokes required to reach peak compression.
12. Press the pressure relief button on the side of the tester
to release the pressure.
13. Disconnect the gauge and remove the glow plug
adapter.
14. Install the glow plug adapter in cylinder 2, and recon
nect the tester.
15. Advance the cylinder number shown on the tester LCD
to 2 by pressing the CYLINDER button.
16. Repeat the compression test on cylinder 2 and all
remaining cylinders. Be sure to crank the engine the
same number of strokes for each cylinder, and to ad
vance the cylinder number shown on the tester.
17. After completing the test on all cylinders, remove the
tester and adapter, and replace the glow plugs.
18. The peak compression value for each cylinder can be
viewed by scrolling through the cylinders using the CYLINDER button.

the tester.
14. Advance the cylinder number shown on the tester LCD
to 2 by pressing the CYLINDER button.
15. Repeat the compression test on cylinder 2 and all
remaining cylinders. Be sure to crank the engine the
same number of strokes for each cylinder, or to run the
engine for the same amount of time, and to advance the
cylinder number shown on the tester.
16. After completing the test on all cylinders, remove the
tester and adapter, and reinstall injector(s).
17. The peak compression value for each cylinder can be
viewed by scrolling through the cylinders using the
CYLINDER button.
18. Follow manufactures instructions for analyzing the
results.
