Case study: ScannerDanner Video

It's been a while since we featured a ScannerDanner video. Here, ScannerDanner discusses how to test for spark on a GM type two waste spark system and how to test for proper fuel injector control. He also covers testing for fuel pressure and checking the fuel pump electrical system.

Please follow our link to the video: ScannerDanner: No start troubleshooting.

Don't forget, we also have our own YouTube channel. We will be adding new videos to our channel on a regular basis, so why not subscribe and you'll receive updates when new videos are posted? You can also submit videos to our channel that you feel would suit our best of the web section.
