I’m stuck .
I have misplaced or loaned out my two dwell meters. This is no longer sold at normal stores. I keep reading that I can set dwell with a multi meter. I have quite a few of them, digital and analog. If anyone knows how to do this, can you please explain it in simple terms for me? Many of the threads go off the rails….and honestly confuse me. What setting do I use? Which place do I connect the meter to? Rich |

QUOTE(mskala @ Apr 10 2023, 06:38 PM)  I had that same one, and while searching for it I found the manual for it in the toolbox. I need to go next door to dig through my FIL tool areas….my stuff has legs. I guessed…16, checked twice, set timing. Seems to be ok. This is a Volvo p1800 ES which also has Djet. I have my BIL running through the fuel which is 50/50 new/old fuel with seafoam and FI cleaner in it now. Once we get all new fuel and some more FI cleaner, I will fine tune it. Meanwhile, I am going to search everywhere and find that damn meter. Rich |
