I am wanting to purchase a spark plug cleaner and tester. The kind I am looking for is the cabinet type that cleans as well as tests the spark plugs while under pressure. I know ATS sells them new and refirbished, but looking to save some money buying working used unit.
I used to have one for my auto shop years ago but would like one for cleaning aircraft plugs

I’ve seen them pop up from time to time on Facebook Marketplace.

I have an ATS one you're welcome to have if you cover the shipping.

I haven't used it in years. I think the only thing it needs one of the air lines repaired on the inside the cabinet. Otherwise it works fine.

Lemme hook it up and see for sure...

Nevermind. I thought it was just that fitting on the back of the pressure gauge. But it doesn't make sparks anymore either. The balster/cleaner side is the only half that still works.

Sorry about that.

If I can’t fix it with a hammer then it’s gotta be an electrical problem.
