Ours was a Universal end remove plug hold in and crank was for Petrol though Cracking tool, Card out staple it to job card.Ebay, seems no problem, it is just that you need a car specific adapter an a short piece of hose with a specific quick connector both ends making it costly for a tool I might never use
If the Card holder is not tethered suggest you make one they go walk about
Diesel needs an adapter in the glowplug so think i will make one from an old one then and there.
Thougth about making cards, can it be ordinary paper and is the scriber a normal pencil? Not wax and a thermal scriber or so?

The one we had was a stylus on a sort of calibrated waxy paper, you clicked the trigger and it moved the graph holder up one cylender
Looks like it is all there, little arm moves across and. takes the white surface of the card leaving a blue arc, the surface was calibrated in columns.
Remember to release pressure before clicking to next cylinder or it scribes an arc going back.
Making cards No they are quite hi tech really there is a calibrated preasure grid and cylinder No on them, surface is white and stylus takes that off leaving a blue trace

It has a slot for mounted slides, and back in the day when you'd be copying from film to film, you'd use slide film (colour positives), so I'm sticking with slide duplicator.Errrr, that's a film strip you have in it.

I am wondering now what happens if you duplicate a negative onto negative film, you'd get a positive image with a strong blue cast from the orange base I think. I'll have to try it.

Aye, I know - it was typed in jest.
No idea, never had occasion to try it.
Thanks for your information, I really appreciate it, and it helps me understand what I need.

You can still get the cards. You get flexible extensions that screw onto the tester with a valve in the end. The rubber tips are probably still available too

Since I got my Parkside Performance 20V Brushless drill I was looking out for a 12v one too. They don't come around often then spotted 2x brand new ones being offered on gumtree 30 mins drive away so went and bought em

Oh, I've got something like that, I don't think I've got the correct adapters to use it in my engines. I picked it up from an autojumble because it was only a fiver, interesting to read that the cards are still available. I'll have to dig it out, see what's different. It has some adapters with it, I think.

I did a tip run this afternoon. Spotted something in a metal box.
Went to ask the employees if I can have it.
They said no, sorry.
Super sad face
As I turned around, thinking this will now be smelted the old guy said 'I am working up here, I can't see down there'
Very happy face
Quick clean
The sockets are: 1 1/8" AF, 1" AF, 15/16 AF, 7/8" AF, 13/16" AF, 3/4" AF, 11/16" AF, 5/8" AF, 9/16" AF, 1/2" AF and 7/16" AF.
Metric: 22mm, 19mm, 17mm, 14mm, 11mm and 10mm.
A couple of bonus items
Not sure if the torque wrench are any good. I guess I can use it as a breaker bar or ratchet if not.
