I love that you’re not envious and always let us know where you purchased your stuff that is so helpful for the community and very kind of you. We appreciate everything that you do sir .
You can get them anywhere they sell pico products, AES wave, auto nerdz, and Jarhead diagnostics. www.aeswave.com/Premium-test-leads-3M-long-set-of-2-p9542.html
Is there anything on particular that I need to know about the pico leads so I buy the right kind? I’m so sorry I don’t know anything about that stuff as you can see bro
I bought this scope a couple of months ago after I saw you use it, especially as it has two channels which are BNC connections. Haven't needed it yet, but I'm glad I got it. 👍🙂
The code, mode6 and misfire history and current misfire on scan data tell which cylinder, that scope test verifies your sound suspicion, AC coupling only shows AC voltage which in this case is generated by the starter motor turning, it is called back emf and it acts as a resistance thus current draw goes down the faster the starter spins, and the faster the start spins the greater the ac voltage generated. Great video thanks for making it. Another video going into more detail on the scope setting would be great. Also, with that secondary pick up you will see longer burn time on secondary ignition wave form compared to a good cylinder, because less pressure in the bad cylinder due to mechanical misfire requires less energy to jump plug gap thus more energy left to keep electron flow going.
Cool. If you take the reciprocal of your plot it would show you the pattern you would get with with an amp clamp (V=IR). I set my pico 2204A to DC when doing voltage based compression tests. It is sensitive enough to give absolute and relative data. One more thing: You can put a US quarter with a lead touching it on an ignition coil and get a nice waveform.
Hello sir . Great video as usual. Quick question how can I buy the type of pico leads does it goes by model or what should I look for . I apréciate your answer.
Great video! I've been wanting to get into using an oscilloscope. The Pico unfortunately is way out of my budget. It looks like Hantek has tablet oscilloscopes that record information. They seem reasonably priced. This would give a larger screen without having to use a laptop. Have you seen these and what are your thoughts as to whether they would work for automotive?
I really don't know; I was curious about that, too. I chose this one because it was really cheap 😃 and I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked it. Before this I was using the uScope but the connection for the micro BNC kept breaking. The scope I learned on was the Pico 2204a, the downside like you mentioned is you need a laptop.
Having a sync doesn't really help you if you don't know the firing order.. But yes, the scantool should tell you which cylinder is dropping. It's not a bad idea to put a bore scope down in the spark plug hole and see if it's a burnt valve or something... Maybe a hole in the piston, possibly
Hey! Really big fan, i wanted to ask you im looking for a Oscilloscope, im a mechanic i work on my own and love your videos right now i have a Kia that is dying intermittently and it does it not to often, so i wanted to finally add a oscilloscope to my box, but i wanted to ask for your recommendation, one that can record i guess so i can drive the car and after the fail happens i can rewatch and see if its cam or crank signal, i have look into some Fnisrn handhell 2 chanels ones and a Hantek that looks like a Pico 8channel that you plug to a PC, anyway, any recommendations would be nice, i dont live in the US but i can import stuff from there, and my budget is not huge thats why i dont go for a Pico, well thanks for your answer in advance!
If you don't mind using one with a PC, I would recommend the Pico 2204a. It's around $130 here in the US. It uses its own Pico software, which is very similar to the Automotive software; it just does not have the guided tests. They also have a 4-channel version for a higher price. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
Dodge is one of the few that cuts spark on a clear flood crank. Very irritating! Dodge 3.6l engines also have some noisy current patterns during a relative compression half of the time too.
@@advancedleveldiagnosticsit does come with a video out cable but that might not be practical to utilize in the field. Thanks so much for showing the Stop function. I have this same scope and wanted to use it for relative compression but couldn’t figure out how to analyze the data. This Stop feature will help a lot! Thanks again, I always look forward to your videos!

@@advancedleveldiagnostics nice link
Wow your helping more people then you know!! Good job my friend!! Take care!!
Thanks, you too!
i to enjoy seeing more of your scope videos .when applicable any content is well liked and always viewed.
Bro. Could you in the future show us more videos explaining how the scope works. ❤
I will try.

Great explanation, thanks for sharing!
@@advancedleveldiagnostics Glad to help. Love your videos. I ordered the secondary pickup you showed to add to my tool collection.
Great info on that little oscilloscope.
Thanks for watching!

I have that scope. works great. I paid a lot more than your linked price one year ago.
Me too!
Ah nice clean car our favorite. Too bad we can’t experience the smell in this the heat
lol you're lucky!
I just bought this scope several weeks ago,I'm still playing with it,definitely need a different set of leads
True, it's not really usable with the ones it comes with.
@@advancedleveldiagnostics no doubt those leads are like 6inches long
How to get pico leads guys ?
How I know what kind of?
@@jordysandino6577 you can get them on AES wave
@@jordysandino6577 Do you have BNC or Bannana?
Excellent
Thanks for the review . Artie 👍
Thanks for watching!
I want that scope
I bought that scope have not had chance to use yet
Hello sir .
Great video as usual.

I apréciate your answer.

I apréciate the link brother this is easy for me .
So please disregard the other question that I did .
Thank you thank you sir

True, I forgot to mention you need the firing order, Thanks for pointing it out.
Joes stuff is great 👊🏻👍🏻
💯 Agreed!
thanks, do u see a huge difference between volt and amp on relative compression. or voltage will do just fine. please.
I'm more used to amperage, but it seems like it works fine.

Would of been nice if we could of seen the screen
Sorry, it doesn't have a screen recorder, and it was super sunny.
