Actron tools

Whats goin on everyone?

Does anyone here have experience with actron tools? I am looking for a compression gauge, vacuum/pressure gauge, and a mechanic's stethoscope (got tired of using a screwdriver :LOL: ) I realize Snap-on, Cornwell and others are the best of the best, but I am not a professional mechanic and would by no means use these tools day in day out. I understand the principle "you get what you pay for" but I am not willing to fork over $200 on a compression gauge :whacked:

What I need is a quality tool that will work, accurately, when I use it.

From what I have read, Actron specializes in the ECU readers/reprogrammers. Their "old school" tools seem up to snuff.

I have Actron's dwell, timing light, and vacuum/pressure gauges and have been very satisfied with their usage. A friend of mine, who is a certified auto mechanic recommended them to me. If you don't want to spend the big buck$, I definitely would invest in some Actrons.

Probably great for at home occasional use.... Unless you're using them all day every day it's kind of tough to justify the prices on the tool trucks....

some of the oldest stuff I have, go for it

Thanks everyone for the great news. I will invest in those tools immediately. :toocool:
