OMC Manual RE: Ignition System Tests for 1975 135hp

[kci5477]

I have a Johnson 135hp 1975. 135ESL75.<br />I currently have a really old Seloc manual for this motor. Volume IV.<br /><br />I am wanting to know if the OMC manual will give the testing parameters using a standard volt meter instead of the neon tester that is talked about in the Seloc manual?<br /><br />I realize that I will have to use a resister with some tests.<br /><br />I am just needing the test proceedure and readings for this specific motor:<br />Strator<br />Power Pack<br />Timer Base<br />Sensor Coil High Ohm<br />Sensor Coil Low Ohm<br />Coils<br /><br />Basicly the entire ignition system and knowning the proper Ohm meter limits and testing proceedures.<br /><br />Will the OMC manual offer this? If not, where can I get this information that is specific to my motor.<br /><br />Thank you,

Kemper I have the voltages you need in a Rapair manual, but they won't do you any good inless you have a DVA to read peak voltage if you do post that you have one I will get the spec. for you

Yes, today I just bought a Fluke meter that can messure peak voltage.<br /><br />But will it also have the testing proceedures or will the current manual I have work?<br /><br />kmartin@kcinternational.net<br /><br />Thank you,

what meter is that? so far all the flukes I have seen require an adapter. RMS is not peak nor is ac or dc reading peak. or did ya have to buy the adapter with it? CDI makes a nice setup for about 115 dollars. would be nice to get another digital meter that would read DVA without adapters to keep up with. I have enough trouble remembering to change the settings sometimes

I wonder if he's got the min/max hold setting confused with peak reading? <br />The Electronic Specialties #640 DVA adapter is pretty inexpensive compared to the CDI one. Sells for less than $50. I'm not suprised to see the competition: the circuit is pretty simple.

Yes I had to buy the adapter. I purchased the one Paul mentioned. ESI640. It was only $22.00 at my local electronic store. I wanted a new meter anyway because I placed my old meter in my RV.<br /><br />But I believe the Fluke 87-3 has it built in.

Wow, that's a fast peak capture on that sucker!
