🔍 Unleash the Power of Precision Testing!
The GearWrench KDT-3289 Oil Pressure Check Kit is a comprehensive 10-piece set designed for testing engine oil pressure on most passenger cars and light trucks. It features a calibrated gauge that reads from 0 to 100 PSI and includes five different adapters to ensure compatibility with both domestic and imported engines.

easiest way to test oil pressure
This kit is the easiest way to test oil pressure vs the 'normal' oil pressure test kits sold by others. This kit is not exclusive to GearWrench, but is harder to find under other tool company names. I haven't had any problems hooking this 'GM' kit to other engines from chrysler and even ford. I'm not aware of any adapters that you can use for the filter media engines, but if you have a canister oil filter then this kit should work.

Need to tap hole in cap
Absolutely amazing, must-have tool but me as well as 3 other techs I know personally have issues out of the box. If you uninstall the Schrader valve it will show instant accurate oil pressure not just peak and if you want it to seal at all you need to run a tap through the threaded hole of the cap ***all the way through*** meaning you'll need to remove the brass fitting first. Once done you'll never have an issue getting it to seal properly.

Great tool
Used once so far on a Ford 3.5 eco boost F150. Worked great. This tool allows you to compare actual pressure to what the sensor is reading. I do recommend taking the Schrader valve out though.

Best engine oil pressure gauge I’ve used
Works extremely well and is very easy to read. Needs some common sense when installed though. It’s easy to get everything tight but not have the cup seated on the filter housing which leads to a massive leaks.

Good unit to test most systems.
If it has a spin on filter, this works well. Sometimes I feel like I have to add too many adapters making it feel kind of Mickey Mouse, but it does work. I do wish the hose was longer, or maybe easier to adapt to a longer hose.

Works well.
Had to rethread the adapter. Make sure to remove the schrader valve in the filter adapter for an accurate reading. Other than that it is a great tool especially for the price.

Remove check valve in adaptor fitting. tire valve core style
Works well.However there is a learning curve so to speak. Found out the hard way. There is a check valve in fitting on adaptor that traps oil pressure in guage. this resulted in only reading peak pressure that in turn resulted in a missed diagnoses of active live pressure. Removed valve and all is well.
