I could not resist the temptation any more annd bought one today !  Equus
model #6040 I forget the CDN part#, but a quick search will turn it up.

Mike in NB


I Hagar has no connection to cTc whatever.. ----------This is a 2 "  instrument
and it is awesome for 6.99.     Mike look at the bottom of dial --does it
say   C700  -  100  - 37 ?     cTc      #    34 - 0114 - 0.

For you NON  HAM types      remember    digital readout does NOT mean accute.
Meters are all over the landscape.  -----Only a comparasion to a STANDARD  will
assure  it is accurate.     For testing  glowplugs ?   accuracy is of no importance
repeatability is.

I am ticled pink with mine  ---    4 plugs firing ?  =  60 Amps     2 plugs ?    30 Amps..

Total time of test ?   30 seconds or less. ---And nothing to disconnect.     Line up a Hundred
Rabbits side by side  and pay me 2 dollars each  ----there is my Cider for the month.
And that is before coffee  break.

Today I promised to fool around with that piece of GM garbage  called a Cavalier.
on a Sunday ?   ----outright blashphemy. If owner was a male ?   I would tell him
to go to hell. --YIEKS.
Give me a Rabbit to work on ---any time.

Hagar.

PS :   I have many meters that I owned since 1945  and they still work.Really
good meters have  RUBY     bearings   and GOLD  springs  ----and fancy
magnets.  ----Gavrik Peterson gave me one -----mind boggling magnet for its size.
