Part No. 8996 - Multi-Channel Digital Ignition Tester

This Tester can be used with all of MSD’s CD Ignition Controls as well as our line of DIS multi-channel ignitions. There are four points-style output wires that can be used to trigger the four channels of the DIS-4 Igni­tions, or a single channel can be used for ignitions such as the MSD 7 Series. There is also a magnetic pick-up connector for racers using an MSD Distributor or Flying Magnet Crank Trigger. The Tester is easy to connect with firm grip alli­gator style terminals and matching ends for trigger inputs. The LCD Alphanumeric readout displays the simulated rpm so you can easily confirm rev limits or the operation of an rpm-activated switch. For use on 4, 6 or 8-cylinder engines with a distributor or with coil packs.

Features:

Hand held tester generates a trigger signal to fire MSD DIS, 6, 7, 8 and 10 Series Ignition Controls and the coil
LCD display shows the simulated RPM and can be used to confirm the operation of rev limits, rpm activated switches, shift lights and tachometers
Triggers through breaker points, amplifier and magnetic pickup trigger inputs from the MSD Ignition
Can be used on 4, 6 and 8-cylinder engines

Part No. 8998 - Single Channel Digital Ignition Tester

This Tester will check the operation of all of MSD’s single-channel CD Ignition Controls. Once the ignition tests good, you can continue troubleshooting and find the culprit. The Tester produces a simulated trigger signal that fires the ignition just as if the engine was running. A special, load-pro­ducing clip-on spark plug is included to connect to the coil wire. If the spark is unable to jump the gap of the tester, there is an ignition problem and you can track it down. For racers with our Digital Programmable 7 Ignition Controls that are using a non-magnetic pick-up as sync signal for Individual Cylinder Management, the Tester has a circuit to check its operation too. The Tester has an LCD display that clearly shows the simulated rpm. This also allows you to test the accuracy of any rpm limits, rpm-activated switches, shift light operation and your tachometer. The Tester operates on 4, 6 or 8-cylinder engines and will simulate up to 16,000 rpm.

Features:

Hand held tester generates a trigger signal to check the operation of MSD single channel Ignitions and the coil (6, 7, 8 and 10 Series Ignition Controls)
LCD display shows the simulated RPM and can be used to confirm the operation of rev limits, rpm activated switches, shift lights and tachometers
Additional circuit will check the operation of cam sync signals
Triggers through breaker points, amplifier and magnetic pickup trigger inputs from the MSD Ignition
Can be used on 4, 6 and 8-cylinder engines
