It works great on 4,6 and 8 cyl (has a selector) has a volt meter and dwell meter. It is also supposed to read amps and has a spearate hookup but I've never used that function. I would really like to get my hands on an old Sun 1020 tester. The scope can help pinpoint all kinds of cyl ailments. 1949 Chevy 1/2-Ton 3100 1949 GMC 1/2-ton 100 In the Stovebolt Gallery More pix on Photobucket Video of the 216 running Video of a Winter Cruise
