My old work had a machine that tested plugs by making them spark in a compression chamber with a viewing window.

For £3.58 and a nut and bolt these should do the trick. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0733PC3TG? ... ct_details

Still haven't ordered a new kickstart for the JAPton yet, so haven't tried my new device.
