  • Patent number: 6170316
    Abstract: A tool for testing pressure/vacuum engine control switches includes a first and second housing. The housings each include inner and outer passages. The housings are attached with the inner passages placed adjacent each other. When attached, the housings form a continuous longitudinal passage. A pressure chamber is attached to the first housing and includes a valve. The valve provides a passage to a testing chamber. The testing chamber includes a receptacle, pressure/vacuum gauge, and a plug. The first housing also includes a vent and a piston/rod arrangement which define a fluid chamber in the first housing. The rod extends from the first housing through the inner passages and partially into the second housing. A seal is provided around the portion of the rod which passes through inner passages. A return spring is provided around the portion of the rod which extends into the second housing. A lock-and-swivel joint is located at the end of the portion of the rod extending into the second housing.
