Does anybody else use a Digital Storage Oscilloscope (DSO) for Vanagon
diagnostics?
I thought it might be interesting and useful to compile a library of Vanagon
waveforms:
- Ignition
- Starter current draw, cylinder balance
- Fuel pump, rpm etc.
- Idle bypass valve
- Alternator
- Fuel injectors

DSOs have been used in automotive diagnostics for almost ten years now, so
there may already be a good collection of vanagon waveforms in the "pay for
access" libraries.

The DSO can be a very powerful tool for quickly finding drivability
problems.  Or it could be that I'm just trying to find uses for my  Fluke
Scopemeter :)
