Again, in this video, I will demonstrate how to troubleshoot the remaining components of the air injection system. First, I explain two methods of starting u…

Hi busjockey. On the 289, it’s pretty much a graphing meter and I’ve used it for looking at a voltage and moving bundles of wires around looking for intermittent opens. It works really great for that. I can just set it up to record, forget the meter, start moving wires and then come back to the meter and see if there are any dropouts. On the sampling, the lowest setting is one-second intervals. For what I was using it for, that was okay. It wouldn’t do very well if you needed a faster sampling.
I’m glad you like the video busjockey, and I appreciate you watching and for leaving some comments. Thanks again!
On the fluke 289 you have, what is the sampling of the graphing for the meter? Didn’t know if it was a standard graphing meter of a power graphing meter where it tracks frequency. Thanks.
Great job, I like the trick with the gloves and you showing and telling people how to properly test a relay which is testing the circuit dynamically. The explanation of test lamp resistance and how it changes the supplied voltage to the relay coil was good too.
Thanks Will as I appreciate your comments. I figured if you’re going to do some work, just as well have a little fun along the way. I’m glad that you enjoyed the video and that you liked the sense of humor with the gloves. It was all unscripted and it just burped out of my mouth. Smiling…
Lots of great information and troubleshooting techniques thumbs up, you guys had me cracking up, the best part was the gloves lol their as limp as me sometimes followed by a giggle lol terry I could read your mind at that moment after she giggled “hmm well you didn’t need to agree with that” great job guys
One more rant on VW ‘clever’ engineering: that exhaust blower sucks almost 300W ! just to ‘dilute’ all the pollution of an inefficient engine… that means higher fuel consumption and higher pollution. Not to mention that if ECU, map sensor or oxygen sensor have a malfunction and exhaust gases get rich in HC… you’ll get a glowing red catalyst / exhaust. How ingenious is that?
The wife part is easier to say than done 🙂
I guess I’ll stay on the 3D / animation videos for now. I am preparing a very descriptive old school vacuum gauge diagnostic video / multimedia that will cover any known engine malfunction.
Okay, I just went to your channel and saw five videos. I’ll have to check them out.
Glad you liked the video! And get your wife to shoot a video of yourself doing a car repair. I’ve been to your channel in the past, but alas, there were no videos. And as you know, there’s one more video to wrap this series up which will include the smoke machine, VCDS and one that I wasn’t going to include originally, is using Picoscope to look at the amperage of the air pump so that I can check the electrical integrity of the armature windings and brushes. And from that, we can calculate RPMs.
The most interesting part of this video was you squeezing those pumped rubber gloves lol. But seriously, it’s ok to add in little entertaining parts. I go now to tame my wife and show her that women can shoot videos very well and they can also stay in a garage more than 5 minutes.
Coming smoke and lasers. Then VCDS. Woohoo!
Yep, I’m glad it wasn’t the motor because of the cost. Yes, the problem was hoses on top of the engine and a bad valve. I contribute the failure to heat, vibration and hot gases. Thanks for the comment.
I’m glad for you that the motor was OK, and a big part of the problem was a bad set of hoses. Do you think engine heat cooked those vacuum hoses?
