Finally found an engine analyzer!!!

Post by Bobs68VW »

Whether I got screwed in price or not, I finally found a working engine analyzer in decent condition. Been wanting one of these for years...Now, if I could only find a fairly priced, working distributor machine!!!

How much you ask...$250.00

Back in the late 50's or early 60s my boss took a loan out for over $3000 for one similar to that but all red. I think it was a Sun brand but that was a long time ago. I remember the price as he used that to tell me why I couldn't touch it. :lol:

250... seems like a good deal to me.
Collecting parts again... No I'm not going to say why!

What model sun is it? We have a Sun 450. A very nice machine. 5 gas analyzer, two channel oscilloscope, low amp probe, etc.

very slick! I have a 4 gas analyzer, this just made me realize there is TONS of space left over on the cart for some custom tools!
give a man a watch and he'll allways know what time it is. give him two and he can never be sure again.

Things are rarely just crazy enough to work, but they're frequently just crazy enough to fail hilariously.
