Note:
The following section applies to Hermann engine analyzers, tests and connections for Bear DACE engine analyzers are similar, please refer to
instruction manual supplied with EI (distributor-less) test adapters.
When diagnosing starting or warm up complaints, do not check engine at operating temperature, instead proceed according to specific complaint. |

Note:
If the the oscilloscope pattern is upside-down (displays 2 ignition voltage lines at the bottom of the screen) or shows no pattern (with engine running), select a different firing order selection at switch D on the EI (distributor-less) adapter 055 (the base setting is 11; select 12, 13, etc. until correct pattern is displayed).
Connect D.C. inductive (pickup) clamp (065) to battery ground cable (model 124) or to ground strap between the transmission and chassis on left side of vehicle (models 129/140/202/210)
