Diagnostics on petrol engines:

  •     Battery, starter motor and associated wiring
  •     Battery charging rate, current draw and alternator
  •     Distributor assembly, cap, rotor arm and ignition timing variation
  •     Ignition module operation & coil dwell function
  •     Coil output together with spark duration
  •     Spark plug and plug lead performance
  •     Carburettor / injection duration
  •     Exhaust gas measurements
  •     Cylinder condition & relative compression testing
  •     Fuel injection variation

Diagnostics on diesel engines:

  •     Battery, starter motor and associated wiring
  •     Battery charge rate, current draw and alternator
  •     Heater glow plug current draw, pre-glow timer check
  •     Heater glow plug, post-glow timer check
  •     Fuel injection pump operation
  •     Fuel injection pump timing (where marks are available)
