Guided test updates: engine condition assessment

18/05/19

As part of our continuous upgrade process, we are pleased to announce additions and updates to our Guided Tests covering engine condition. The Guided Tests describes how to connect your PicoScope to obtain intake, in-cylinder, crankcase and exhaust pressure waveforms so that you can diagnose engine mechanical faults that may be causing problems with airflow and engine volumetric efficiency.
