Snap on have loaned it me for testing
Its essential a hand held 5 gas analyser the size of a multimeter!!
Heres a few pics to show its size and use etc...





Its magnetic based too so can be stuck onto things for stability
Best of all is teh printer, its battery powered and infa red.. just point and press print and out comes your before and after emissions sheets...
Will be trying it out with boost on teh road later, see how she likes real EGT's

I have one of thoses for when i am testing the efficentness of Boilers when i am Testing and commissioning them
The Infra red printer idea is very handy too
Mine goes in the Flue, so is like the exhaust
Never even thought of using it on the car

foreigneRS,
how can you say that? do you know if it's accurate at all?

Il be testing it back to back with my Ł6K ecm unit so time will tell.. i have very strong reservations about its pump speed and time delay TBH..

I was just stating that----
IF IT IS AS GOOD AS STU MAKES OUT IT MUST BE A QUALITY BIT OF KIT!
As for SNAP ON im sure it is a quality bit of kit!
Untill you test it yourself you will never be able to brand it good or bad!
ALL YOU CAN DO IS GO BY OTHERS EXPERIANCE
(AS LONG AS THEY ARE FIRST HAND AND NOT JUST PASSED ON DOWN THE LINE LIKE WHISPERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
NOW GO AND BITE SOMEONE ELSE!

Edited to add what are the response times like.
My Sun SGA9000 5 gas takes around 3 seconds to update with 20 ft sample pipe.

My Souriou bench is the same with approx 3seconds, and even that would be fooking useless at 3000rpm in 3rd eh Karl? I feel this kit will only be good for assessing whether a fault exists under normal low load conditions and workshop loads etc etc...
Incidentally.. for the uninitiated..
My ECM mapping AFR kits response time is <150ms
My bank manager's response was somewhat more delayed.....

Me too.. but when your Snap On / Sun man ask's you to try thier new kit against your industry standard stuff in exchange for buying it cheap if you want it, what can you say?

Sample time mate..
Refresh rate every 1 second
Time to draw sample from tale to unit... 20seconds
I think the scenario i described earlier is very apt for this unit.....

We use a Kane machine which is in a very similar vein, but the same sample time issues are present, the sample pump used is never going to be able to draw through 15ft of pipe in any sensible time for on-road use
