well, pep boys here in lake worth, tx just started carrying a piece just for that, but before you HAD to buy a compression checker and pull the little schrader valve out of it and use that with your air compressor. if you send me an email i'll give ya my cell number and get ya a part number for it at pep boys tomorrow.

I bought a compression checker. Make sure it had detachable parts, as the cheaper models won't do. I had to make several stops before I found a good one at NAPA. BTW - I found one of those lever type spring compressors at autozone for $5.
