How do you use or measure the pressure, I mean where do you insert the fitting for oil or transmission pressure..??

All transmissions are different. You will need to go on the web to see where the tap, that has a plug, and where it is located . There may be several taps on the transmission to read different functions of your particular transmission. You will need to know what pressure you are looking for, to diagnose problems in your particular transmission. You will benefit by doing your homework.

Hi, when using in engine..insert in oil pressure sender's port..and in transmission..every model has test ports in housing..you'll need the tranny's repair manual to know which port is for test forward and reverse gears and the pressure values..

Sam as Gary said, all trannys are different. Start with the model of your transmission and google is your friend.

The weight is not the same. You can use you regular gauges. Just what cross contaminating mineral and synthetic oil. The low side pressure should be the same. But the high side should be lower, because it is more efficient. The should be a conversion chart supplied or on the various websites. It works well.

There is a drain plug right under the oil level sight gauge. Drain it there and then re-fill to the red dot on the sight gauge through the red filler cap on top.

I don't have to proper equipment to Measure but it's about 3/4-1/8-1/16 and then oil immersion. Did you try asking the manufacturer?

Yes, it will tell you the pressure. Just like using one at the gas station.

You can add it to new fluid or you can add it to existing fluid. Just right down the transmission fluid fill hole. It is the size of a med tube of tooth paste. So you dont have to worry about overflow.

If you take the cap off the low side outlet and tip the comp. you should have oil coming out . I do this with every comp. I buy . Then I ad about 3- 4 ounce's off oil. If your not comfortable doing it that way, you can have someone with a recovery machine vacuum it down and then fill it.

I do not believe that this cyl leakage tester can be used to check oil pressure.You would better served with an OTC engine oil pressure tester (or equivalent).

Yes, this is actually what you SHOULD use. I've done two transmission fluid changes, one required 100 inch pounds and the other 124 inch pounds. It was also needed for water pumps at 89 inch pounds and intake manifold at 115 inch pounds. Accurate torque at these low settings is very important to prevent leaks or damaging gaskets. I tested my wrench before using and it's very accurate.

Hi Jason. I'm a former wrench and use a Thexton 419X GM Engine Moving Tool or similar. put trans in "N" and remove upper motor mounts (ie.. dog bones), mount this tool and pull the engine towards front of car. Or like others, pulling the coil pack sure helps. Depending on the year and car sometimes you'd be shocked at what you can do from the bottom side.. Good luck my friend !!

Add a few drops of oil prior each use to the air inlet or install an automatic oiler to your system

Yes it will fit/work for checking transmission fluid level. Stick dipstick in tube until it bottoms out. Then place a mark on the stick at the top of the tube. I used a permanent magic market to mark the stick. You could file a small notch after you mark it and remove it from the tube.. The goal is to make sure it is read at the same place every time. Follow the instructions that come with the tool.

To my knowledge no and would not be worth the trouble. It is very common to go bad and if other gauges are working and oil pressure stays around 0 without a knock in engine it is probably bad. You did not say year model and mine is an 04 and buried at rear of engine and requires a special wrench to replace. Nothing I would wish to do twice. If it were next to the oil filter as they once were it was simple. Old days they would leak first.

Both are correct at least for what I needed them for, I used some on my 06 Hayabusa that I had motor work done on and wanted to install a presure guage, the fittings worked out fine. Hope this helps out.

You would need a line adapter. It has an 1/8th pipe plug. I put it in a port on the side of the transmission.

Most transmissions have a test port, this spot will give you the most acuraite reading. You may have to do some research or crawl under and find it

As long as you bcan get the tip of the tubing into the transmission fluid it should work. Transmission fluid is no more viscous than oil and the pump will work.
