It would be a really good deal if I didn't live in Hawaii.
It cost like 30 bucks, just for shipping.
Oh well

Even my $60 (from 10-15 years ago) analog meter has a few fuses in it. 'Fact, I'm 99% sure that this Sunpro one has a fuse, too. I didn't really read the owners manual too carefully on it.
I'm actually surprised they still have the meters! When did I tell you guys about that? I told the General Tech board a few days later- I figured with all the people on that board, they would've bought out their whole stock!
I also picked up the fuel injector tester; thing looks great! It has separate sets of injector connectors, since it can check most any injector. Know how they connect to the main test leads? Via a 4-pin molex connector, the exact same one that a PC would use for the power to it's floppy/cdrom/hard drives! And this time, I got a box for it.

Tom , I've been thinking of ordering that injector tester also . Yeah I know I have new injectors , but I KNOW I will have another used camaro and will want to test my injectors .

Yeah , I just knew all those meters would be gone to Tom , I was surprised when I went and found them still there . I think Karl said something about needing a new one , and I thought Id go check to see if they had any left .

If you go back, pick up their sensor tester. It checks MAF and MAP sensors! I ran it on my dad's former '88 Olds 2.8 MPFI, and it pointed us to a bad MAP. Damn handy thing to have; especially considering how often our MAF sensors take a crap.
(Yes, '88 2.8 Olds should've had MAF, but a dealership converted it to speed density with a MAP sensor, a MAF bypass, and a special computer chip.)

i was going to point that out Tom, then I read further...
I still don't get why people convert to MAP and Speed Density, becuase isn't MAF more accuraute ???????

It is, but the problem is, the MAF sensor is delicate, and can break. And, you get enough people complaining about the problem of replacing a $300 MAF (from GM, since they don't know where else to go, and chances are, they're not installing it themselves anyway!), and GM decided to release a technical service bulletin. Instead of a recall, a TSB gives directions to a mechanic on how to fix a common problem. So whoever owned the car before my dad did probably ran into the bad maf, and $300 bill- and chose the cheaper route of a new MAP sensor and new computer chip.
The car had a silver sticker on the driver's side shock tower; something like "chip replaced, see bulletin number #### for details". If we still had the car I'd go get the bulletin number...

...I will go back later and get the injector tester . But I figure I will have MAF sensor trouble before I will injector trouble , so I decided to order that first , plus I think it test other sensors to ! Supreme Member
