An introduction to in cylinder pressure analysis using the Ditex PDS500G pressure transducer. In cylinder pressure testing is a great way to 'see' exactly what is happening inside the engine. We can diagnose valve timing problems, exhaust blockages, compression loss and much more! Here we look at the basics of in cylinder waveform analysis using the PicoScope 2204A.

The Ditex PDS500X is the full kit available with various adapters, and includes the PDS500G pressure transducer. Kit is available from Elite Diagnostics: https://elitediagnosticsolutions.co...

Ditex sent me the kit free of charge in return for a fair review of the product.
