AC Mains Electrical Interference

Just a quick post, using NVH to check wheel bearings on the ramp. The laptop was running off the mains charger cable, I noticed peaks on the readings at 50, 100 and 200 Hz, puzzled me for a minute because the car was not being touched, then realised mains voltage supply in the UK is 50 Hz, put the l...

Advanced Measurements

For example I am trying to measure a changing injector pulse width, I thought that using the "low pulse width" would be the correct choice but ...

Re: Gearbox Ratios

Hi Steve Wow that's what you call a comprehensive explanation, I will sit down and look through it and then try it out on the RR. I wasn't sure where it gave the listing of overall ratios, how that would come into NVH. It would be handy if this info was available from more manufacturers maybe we wil...
