I bought this pop tester with a broken gauge and replaced it with a 5" glycerine filled gauge and it is super legible! I just made an adapter for VW /Mercedes IDI injectors (pics below). I need to make one for VW TDI injectors. If you have a cracked injector line and have no use for it please PM me. As long as the crack is not at the flare end and a few inches from the end it will work.

You can get them made up for about $10 from any custom brake line shop. That's what I did. There's a couple places online that will sell you the ends too.

I am confused as to why a custom brake line shop would have special diesel fuel injection fittings. I am open to ideas though. Please show some pics of what you'd made and parts used.

Thanks to Jettawreck, who donated injector line ends so I can make a TDI injector adapter for the pop tester. If anyone have injectors they want to pop test and look at spray patterns for a coffee or beer, please PM me. :)
