    What is Engine Load?

    The best I can say,or what I am acqainted about it,is when I had installed megajolt onto one of my cars. I've known it to be the plenum vacuum

    Hand held exhaust analyser

    The analyser is ten years old,give or take. Bosch acquired SPX in 2012,quite possibly Bosch won't have much about the product. There are several other brands,that are quite similar,such as Kane Auto 4-1 and Probike Microgas. Possibly they were made at the same factory,but branded according to...

    Hand held exhaust analyser

    Hello everyone, another headache,my portable 4 gas analyser has stopped working. The SMPSU that plugs into mains is supplying the 10vdc to the pcb,as I have checked the power lead,and I've checked the DC socket solder points on the board. But where do I check next? (The picture is large so it...

    Dab surface pump

    Hello everyone, I've just bought a second hand pump It didn't come with power wiring cable. So having wired in cable and a plug the pcb started to smoke. I've looked at the components on the pcb,and it looks like it was the zettler az2100-1a-24de relay that has fried As you may see,there's two...

    1980's trip computer?

    Thanks for your reply. I've managed to open up the trip computer,and take photos of the pcb,to see if it's possible to mount and convert the (beige area with silver tracks) board with a more ready available connector,as appose to the OE connector. You see,what happens is,when someone breaks the...

    1980's trip computer?

    Hello everyone,I was advised to ask here aswell,from a fellow forum user in the Electrical section. The trip computer has a connector on the back,which I have now been informed as an edge connector (thankyou Gunnar). As the OE connector are rare,would there be possibility to advance on the...

    Hello everyone,I been meaning to post a topic on here,not enough hours in a day with long working hours. My question is regarding an 1980s Ford that has a trip computer,where at the back of the computer,a connector slides onto the PCB tracks. I'm hoping someone might be able to identify the type...

    Supplementary braking system?

    Thankyou all for your replies. @GregLocock,you do have a point regarding insurance issues when not properly equipped to avoid an accident. I do deem myself a responsible motorist,so safety has priority. It was mainly for A-frame application,as A-frames are illegal for long distance in the UK...

    Supplementary braking system?

    Hello all, I'm Paul from Manchester England and have an interest in Automotive engineering. Although I'm not too savvy on certain subjects,for example pneumatic components. I'm trying to devise an auxiliary braking system to my car that can suit an A-frame,or a brakeless trailer. What I have...
