Yeah. I've played parts bingo before...

I'm slightly annoyed the guy didn't vac test it when he had it. How much is the gear for doing that myself and can I use it on other engines, things like Honda GX?

I have a mityvac which costs about £80.

 

Yes these testers have a huge range of uses aside from p&v in two and four strokes.  I prefer a separate gauge for compression testing. Also bleeding brakes, finding leaks, draining fluids, draining old engine oil, unblocking central heating oil pipes - just some of the uses I have put mine too

That sounds useful. Can you post a link please. Either to yours or to one you'd buy instead of it now.

just make sure you get one that does vacuum as well as pressure.  Mityvac do a similar pressure only tester that I bought by accident first time round.
