Question About Dwell Meter Use
I have been coddled with electronic ignition for many years so have a question about using my old dwell meter.... Other than the obvious two battery leads, where does the coil lead go?
:confused: David |
Uh... not quite clear here.
By 'coil lead' do you mean a clip that looks like it would slip over a spark plug wire? Most multimeters do several things besides measure the dwell and that 3rd lead slips over the #1 plug wire. The red lead attaches to the negative post on the coil (it is labeled with a "1" and the condensor wire from the dizzy runs to it.) The black lead is grounded anywhere you want on the frame/motor. |
Hmmm... I guess technology has changed in the last 25 years since I bought this thing! ;) This has two battery cables and a yellow lead with an alligator clip. Maybe what I really need to do is go get a new meter. I think its time!
The negative post is what I need I think. Like I say, it's been a long time!! :) David |
Negative post on the coil is what I use...
