    Oscilloscope purchase advice for testing electronics

    Ok going in a little hotter than planned. About double of what I wanted to spend, now I will have to discover the mysteries of small Cricut boards. Looks like a decent value for the features and give me plenty to learn about in retirement. Thanks all for the advice https://a.co/d/9PMlouw

    Oscilloscope purchase advice for testing electronics

    I did a little more looking. This handheld one does have a trigger. May still look around a bit, but likely plenty of features and power for my 1975 circuit board.

    Oscilloscope purchase advice for testing electronics

    Thanks again for passing on your knowledge. I just read through the XYZ's of Oscilloscopes book that you linked to. It was a great read and helped me better understand the terminology and capabilities. I did not take the quizzes though :). A guy could really get sucked into learning more...

    Oscilloscope purchase advice for testing electronics

    Thanks for the educational answer. I will have to take a closer look into your brand selections. Just doing a basic search and knowing that that once I get these fixed, my use will be limited (unless I go down a rabbit hole with different types of projects). As of yesterday I was looking at...

    My car died, oil light came on, saw smoke, then it fired back up like normal

    Foil pack was normal back in the day. There was a foil wrapped insulation pack that went on the belly pan just below the intake manifold. Some say it was to keep engine heat from the intake manifold to help prevent vapor lock. Other say it was to help reduce lifter noise in the engine.

    My car died, oil light came on, saw smoke, then it fired back up like normal

    It is normal for the oil light to come on as soon as the engine dies. If the engine is not turning the oil pump is not turning. Not sure what your puff of smoke might have been? Oil dripping from your valve covers onto the exhaust manifold?

    Oscilloscope purchase advice for testing electronics

    Based on a recent thread and his room full of electrical testing equipment maybe @Vaanth has some advice on what parameters I should look for in an oscilloscope. Also I believe @Polara_500_Jr said he has some small electronics experience.

    Oscilloscope purchase advice for testing electronics

    I forgot, what determines what MHz bandwidth I should consider? I see 10MHz, 50MHz, 110MHz and more. I probably need to use my google machine to help understand.

    Oscilloscope purchase advice for testing electronics

    As I am starting to get my exhaust analyzer in operating condition I need some test equipment. New project: Allen Engine analyzers, restoration? To do the proper tests on the circuit board and signal amplifiers, I need an oscilloscope. As I am looking I see ranges from $30 to $1600. As it...

    New project: Allen Engine analyzers, restoration?

    I got my infrared source (glow plug) installed today. Need to wait until my furnace cement and fireplace mortar set up and then will see if anything good happens.

    Finally got my dream survivor 69 Polara, query about keeping survivor or doing mods

    Nice car by the way. I am for originality. I like to keep it like the engineers designed it.

    Finally got my dream survivor 69 Polara, query about keeping survivor or doing mods

    agree. He should be using the built in gas cap holder. The cap is the perfect size to wedge between the license plate door springs to hold it open to allow un obstructed access to the fill tube. Don’t ruin the already fragile paint by setting the cap on top of the trunk.

    NOT MINE 1970 Chrysler 300 Hurst

    Do we have the door tag/ fender tag for this one?

    NOT MINE 1970 Chrysler 300 Hurst

    Definitely not for a flipper. It would take a true hobbyist that has time on their hands and good cash flow that does it for the challenge. I am glad it’s not closer to me as I am starting to look for retirement projects. But need to (should/ want to) add on to the garage first.

    NOT MINE 1970 Chrysler 300 Hurst

    A blank Canvas for sure, doesn’t look like much to undo, but plenty to re-do. Looks fairly rust free? If I were closer I would probably go look at it. I would have to step up my upholstery game for the seats. For $10K I could have it in my garage and then another $60-70k or more, it could be...

    1978 New Yorker, so many questions, just 1 for now

    Press and hold the gas pedal about 1/3 of the way down and then crank. If your carburetor is good, pumping will just flood it.

    For Sale 68 Polara miscellaneous parts

    Logistics may be a no go, but how clear and scratch free are the side windows, front and rear both sides? If they are in really good shape I could probably figure out how to get them safely to ND Also the plastic headlight bezels and a clean grill can be hard to come by if the mounting tabs...

    New project: Allen Engine analyzers, restoration?

    Also on the diagnostic machine I started checking pin connections from the engine harness back to the analyzer. I found when I stuck my amp meter probe in, one of the plug sockets would back out. I also found that one of the other sockets had a loose wire. Waiting for some new sockets and plug...
