Lang Tools Detroit 50 & 60 Diesel Compression Test Adapter (TU-15-33)

The Lang Tools Detroit 50 & 60 Diesel Compression Test Adapter (TU-15-33) is an indispensable tool for mechanics and technicians working with Detroit Diesel Series 50 and Series 60 engines. This specialized adapter is engineered to integrate perfectly with the Lang Tools TU-15 Diesel Compression Tester, providing a reliable and accurate method for assessing cylinder compression. Understanding the compression levels of an engine’s cylinders is vital for diagnosing various performance issues, identifying worn components, and ensuring proper engine operation. Without a dedicated adapter like the TU-15-33, obtaining precise compression readings on these specific engine models would be challenging, if not impossible, due to their unique injector well design. The adapter’s design focuses on ease of use and accuracy, featuring a quick-disconnect mechanism that simplifies the testing process.
