I'm looking for a tester, or suggestions how to, for AMP BLADE type connector that will measure the quaility of the engagement. I have experanced erratic connections in 40 year old control card racks that are repeatedly removed for calibration

the recepticale is shown here

the connector will still be in the rack about 14" deep, I envision a spring rectracted blade in a tube that once released will let me measaure how much engagenent the blade makes after the minumun insertion force is meet.

Any one been here before?
