good quality units are under 50 bucks . i have used them on finding a bad motor was just half the crab was plugged up . split plenum intake cold start watch each exhaust port ( bbc ) warm up . driver side was hot/cold/cold/hot and pass side was cold/hot/hot/cold . swapped a good carb on and solved his problems.

had a efi 3.0 toyota v6 with a dead skip on it . guy installed all new tune up stuff . still there . cold start test again found cyl #1 cold . started to wiggle around stuff and the injector wire popped off it wasnt clipped on . clipped it on and smoothed right out and run perfectly .

brakes hanging up . temp the calipers and rotor . the hotter one tends to be the bad position .

list goes on / on / on with uses .
