Longer reading.

The firing order on this engine is: 1,12,5,8,3,10,6,7,2,11,4,9. A later model F456_M came with another firing order (they said for a ...

F456 Results

Hi. Well today I got home very late but I'm so happy because I get some results with the oscilloscope. I did not have the chance to 'play' with the Pico on well running cars, so I had to learn on some 'bad scenarios' and I got confused between my skills and the oscilloscope's greatnesses... As you c...

Re: Error On Cylinder Balance Test

Hi Alan, Today I took the readings on the F456 and the F360. Ones again and exactly like the last time they end with the ERROR on the Engine Balancing test. First of all is very difficult to get any good reading (during on the Engine Balancing Setup). I've tried to connect the leads on the Alternato...

Re: Error On Cylinder Balance Test

Hi Alan, "Omg" My English still too poor. Sorry I have confused about the crank word... Yes, you are right the Ferrari V8 engines have a flat crankshaft (F308 and F360). They work as two 4 Cylinder engines on the same crank with two separate ECU's to manage each bank. The F456 has a V12, They also r...

Re: Error On Cylinder Balance Test

Hi Alan,

The F430 was the first one to a flat plane crank.

The best

Re: New forum Member

Sorry I have been out of town for the SEMA Show in Las Vegas. The F308 is gone, so I can't make any other measurement on it. Today I have been doing the same balancing test to a F360. I don't understand... it fails! I connect the Pico Channel A direct to the alternator and the other end to a very go...
