A while ago Matt offered me an old Engine Diagnostic Scope for a good price, it is sitting in my garage, used it a couple of times. For those that have never used a scope they are the ultimate in diagnostic tools, but most shops have steered away from them because the take more time to use and the operator needs the skills to use them to their fullest potential.

I used a scope for years when I was in the trade and was very good at using them ... but it has been a while and I admit my skills are a little rusty.

Anyway, I was offered a deal yesterday that I could not refuse, a complete Allen Coputer Diagnostic system with 4 gas analyzer and litereally boxes of accessories and adapters for most any engine and ignition configuration.

Anyway the older scope I have is available to anyone who wants it .... FREE !!!!

Raz has first dibs on it but if he does not want it then whoever has a truck to come and pick it up then it is yours.

Mmm 4 gas analyzer. Nice. Got to bring that to dyno day to verify the accuracy of the shop wideband.

For those who don't know, the 4 gas is FAR more reliable an indicator of burn quality & overall AFR compared to the wideband. Not quite as portable, though.
