    Got a good screw in one, doesn't always fit bike plugs though. And a ratty old rubber cone one. And a calibrated thumb, better than any mechanical contraption.

    PM me if they'll help

    I think I've got a cheap nasty screw in one somewhere in the garage. If you get completely stuck let me know, it may be something that has gone out on loan and never come back. If I still have it I'm not sure where it's hiding.

    Hey Steve, I've got a rubber-plug one too. Don't know how accurate it is, flogged it off Dad (he has (well, had) three sitting around doing nothing).

    True dat. I made an adapter from brass hex bar to fit my tester so it works on bikes!
    If it wasn't for a concise set of rules, we might have to resort to common sense!
