Introduction

The Ferret 953 adapts virtually any dual channel labscope or graphing multimeter to display

Kilovolts on both DIS and Conventional ignition systems. The ignition waveform will be

displayed in a parade pattern. Labscopes that do not have a Cylinder #1 Trigger will need to

use the Ferret 951 Cylinder #1 Trigger in conjunction with the Ferret 953 to properly synchronize

the parade pattern.

The quality of the ignition waveform depends on the performance of the labscope.

General Instructions

You must be familiar with the operation of the labscope being used with the Ferret 953. Please

refer to the operator’s manual for the labscope if necessary. All instructions contained

in this manual are written for the Ferret 953’s use on a dual output (two cylinders per coil)

distributorless ignition system. On a typical Double Output DIS system, you will have half of

the connectors plugged into each side of the Ferret 953. Use the polarity switches on the 953

to set the ﬁ ring polarity the same (COP Ignitions), or each side different (DIS Ignitions).

The Ferret 953 uses a 9-volt battery for power. Press the Power button once and the indicator

light will be constantly on. After 5 minutes the 953 will power down. Press the Power button

a second time and the 953 will stay on until the battery runs down, or you turn it off.

Single Trace LabScopes

Some single trace labscopes are able to display ignition waveforms. You must connect both

the Cylinder #1 Trigger (Ferret 951), and the Ferret 953 to the input channel by stacking the

banana jacks. Since the Trigger is on the same channel as the Ferret 953, Cylinder #1 will

have a very high spike. Set the trigger to pickup just the top portion of the spike. This will

synchronize the display to #1 Cylinder. To analyze Cylinder #1, move the Ferret 951 Cylinder

#1 Trigger to another cylinder.

Distributor Ignitions

All instructions remain the same, except you connect only one KV Clip to the Coil wire. Do not

connect KV Clips to each individual spark plug wire. Simply plug the single KV Lead into any

connector. For Distributor ignitions where the coil is in the cap, you will need the appropriate

KV Pickup Plate found in the Available Accessories Section.

Coil per Plug Ignitions

Connect one spark wire clip to each coil. Set the polarity switches to the same polarity on

both sides.

Safety Precautions

Read all Instructions before using the device

• Always wear eye protection when testing vehicles. Be extra careful near

batteries and moving parts. Do not lay tools on a battery.

• Battery gas is highly explosive.

a. If a battery explodes ﬂ ush the acid away from persons skin with generous

amounts of water. Follow up with a neutralizing solution of baking soda

and then more water.

Treat clothing, vehicle parts, and equipment similarly. Any acid traces

inside equipment must be removed by generous rinsing. Dry equipment

and place in a warm 50°C (120°F) oven until thoroughly dry.

b. Never use a wrench on the ungrounded battery terminal until the

grounded one has been disconnected. Contact between the vehicle

body metal and the hot terminal can cause sparks to ignite gas or even

weld tools into a battery short circuit.

c. Keep the space around a battery well ventilated.

d. Do not make sparks or allow ﬂ ames near batteries.

• Before working on a vehicle set the brakes and block the wheels. Beware

of automatic parking brake releases.

• Keep your work area well ventilated and free of exhaust. Engine exhaust

contains deadly poisons. Treat Gas Detector exhaust and drain hoses the

same as the vehicle tailpipe. Both give off deadly exhaust fumes.

• Avoid electrical shocks caused by getting close to live ignition wires or

touching the coil TACH terminal. A person’s reaction near a live engine can

be more damaging than the shock.

• Keep spark producing devices at least 0.5m (18”) above the ﬂ oor to reduce

the hazard of igniting gasoline vapor.

• Do not let test leads wind up in a moving fan or pulley. Route leads

away.

• Remove ﬁ nger rings and metal wrist bands. They can short terminals and

become very hot from electric current.
