True by today's standards. They do a lot of things however, I used them years ago when in high school. The ones pictured were used by a local HS up until about 3 years ago.

Never said they were bad , I used them also in the early years as a mechanic

I keep looking at swap meets for one and someday I will pick one up.     They are cool to have!

Well... perhaps you and I should talk...

I bought an "Investigator" new in '84, used it daily in my repair shop until end of summer '86 when I took the teaching job I retired from. Very good piece of equipment at the time. Still got it, and still use it on my toys. I would love to find out how to repair and calibrate the CO and HC meters though.

I had an Atlas one from my fathers gas station. I gave it away because the floor space was more valuable to me. What I liked the best about it was you could see a worn distributor and bad wires.

Those machines look to be the "newer" versions. My step father sold Allen equipment in the late 60's and I remember him showing my uncle in his Shell Car Guard Clinic- with a chassis dyno and all- how the machine worked on his new 69 Buick GS400. Once you got used to it, it was truly amazing how much info you could glean using them.

Yep I have used them in Auto Mechanics class many,many years ago

That was really hi tech back in the day.
Learned how to use one in the 70's when I worked as a mechanic in an Exxon station on weekends.
Looked very cool to even look at.

Not quite in the same vein but I have one of these...works, and cool Mopar unit to look at, only 18 inches wide, but I'm running out of a spot for it.
May have to roll it to Carlisle

What is that worth.....  Does it still work? Missing any parts? Might be interested?

[mccannix]

Came from a still operating dealership, ...worked there.
Plug it in, lights up, but I never had a desire to hook it up to anything.
$150.00 on the ground at Carlisle or I'll leave it up here for you, $200.00 Canuckbucks
