Built from heat-resistant ABS, the tester accepts most 12mm spark plugs and provides visible indicators and an adjustable frequency dial for controlled, repeatable checks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the dual-hole design speed up spark plug diagnosis?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe two test ports let you insert a known-good plug and the suspect plug side-by-side so you can compare spark intensity and stability instantly.
