Dyno

[jekruger72]

I got some problems with my 85 p-type, i was wondering if some one had the machine to hook it up to it and see whats wrong. I live in mukilteo, wa. I know junkie has one in everett. That would be i huge help.

Machine? As in a code reader? Dyno measures hp.. What is your car doing that you figure something is wrong?

Woo hoo, 100th post! haha

Bring it over Sat.we'll give her a look.I'll have a helper that can move a bit better than myself.

Dyno???

If it's something wrong w/ the motor, the dyno would be a good way to make the problem worse... Not to mention the $120 an hour of dyno time for this to happen.

Yes, it's called a digital multimeter... Easily available @ your local Auto Parts store....

I have had killer luck with the ebay $8 specials. ...just make sure you don't get one of those fack'n autoranging ones. ...those work about as well as a one-legged blind mexican.

A dyno is a great way to find problems! It cost an arm and a leg to do it but when you can run a car up on one and data long amlost everything it makes fiding problems much ez'r.

Dean,

Can't view the pictures, but if it's the "Black Diagnostic Box/Toyota EFI Checker" then I "think" this can only be used on the Non-TCCS cars. Which would rule out a 85. I know they can be used on MKI's & 82 MKII's.

I see red x's also.Still if he just comes and visits,we'll take a look at her.PM box was full when he tried to contact me,I sent my addy,be happy to check it out.

I wish !!! But,I do have enough stuff here to diagnose most of the problems with these damn cars ;) Gimme a couple years,you never know what I'll end up with,LOL.

[CJSREDPRA]

So in reality.... What's REALLY lurking underneath the "in pieces" AE86, is a hidden Mustang or Dynojet dyno??? WOOHOO!! More reasons for meet's @ Shawns garage!! And if the car exhausts are loud enough when we do the pulls, it's an even BETTER excuse to piss off his neighbors that he can't stand!! :zzzzz:

It came along with the race car when I got it. I guess I should try it out some day...
