You can modify a compression tester to work. The ones that have the quick release fittings on them that can connect to an air compresser are the ones that work. You just remove the core out of the part that threads into the spark plug hole and take the guage part off. All you would need to get is a valve stem remover for a tire valve to do it. Then you just plug it into the tester to let air in and listen for the leaks.

Motorcycle cop pulls up next to me on UNI and says "Want to race?"
Me- "I don't think you would stand a chance."
Cop says "probably not" and drives off.
