How to diagnose a misfire (a ScannerDanner Premium training video)

[@DaleReynolds]

I truly have to say, I'm an auto technician. I went to tech school back in 2009, just got into a dealership position about 3 years ago (a large gap of time where technology has truly picked up). What you Paul have done and continue to do as far as these videos with the classes, troubleshooting in the field, etc has been absolutely amazing to watch and learn from. You go so much deeper into diagnosing things, far more than anyone else who I have "picked brains" from in the field. I seriously cannot thank you enough for the amount of effort you put in for those like myself who want to truly become better. I am a big fan, I have subscribed and I will at some point soon be purchasing a copy of your works. You sir are awesome! Thank you!

[@ScannerDanner]

Thank you so much Dale! Merry Christmas my friend.

[@Alchemist37]

I absolutely agree with all your comments !!! As an experienced technician in New Zealand doing diagnostic work for over 10 years using scopes I always get a little something from your videos. Today was the coil turn on oscillations and what actually produced them work respect to the 2ndry ignition. GOLD! I recommend your channel to other mechanics all the time. Thanks for all the effort you put into fighting the good fight :)

I've been working on cars for 35 years and I just cant get enough ! could watch this all day . its soothing to the brain. great stuff .

[@mowerdog]

I was a ASE master tech from 1975 - 1985. I quit and started a remodeling/repair business for 35 years. I have continued to perform all my own repairs. Now I'm thinking of semi retiring and going back to working on cars part time. I have fully enjoyed all of your videos that will prep me to take my skills to greater levels. Thanks you for your time and effort to educate us.

[@mikem5475]

I've never heard of a mechanic getting money wealthy but I've met a man who made over a million from remodeling gone home flipping. He said home flips made him 60 grand in 3 months on his first try

[@averydomingue4638]

I am about to be done with my automotive degree and after watching your videos, I can see how much my local community college leaves out of the curriculum. This video is absolute GOLD. Thank you, Paul.

[@ScannerDanner]

thanks man! keep watching and check out ScannerDanner Premium from my website when you get a chance. There is a 14 day free trial, then it is pennies per day to be part of it.

[@voland4513]

This is what's called advanced performance diagnostics. Paul is the master, always ahead and top notch. Thanks for the posted video.

[@ScannerDanner]

Thanks for watching!

[@amadeomira1036]

And giving the knowledge to everyone and I would like to get some of your knowledge that you have.i don't know how to get in to your class I'm in California

[@slopoke22]

Hey man. I have my own automotive shop and I also build racing engines and racecars. I've never had a teacher for the auto world though. Even though over the years I've read alot of ASE books. But people have no clue what it takes to figure things out sometimes. I've watched alot of your vids and I am subbed. Thanks for posting and teaching this young generation

[@ScannerDanner]

Thank you so much for this comment! And for subscribing!

[@slopoke22]

ScannerDanner no prob. I attended courses at The School of Automotive Machinists (Sam Racing) in Houston Texas. One of the best engine builders in the world. So I learned to build and machine and study race engine theory. But over the past 10 yrs I have gotten alot of general Auto stuff. Alot of times it way more difficult to diagnose and figure out what's going on. But anyway I have a snap on Solus that I use and that's how I found you a couple years ago. You teach a difficult occupation very well sir. I may pick up your premium before long.

[@andrewwmacfadyen6958]

Paul has taught a lot to guys like me too :-)

[@eyesalooking]

This is the first time I am starting to understand this stuff. I have the uScope and am attempting to learn how to use it. Am signed up to ScannerDanner Premium. I will be watching this video over and over until I understand completely what I am being taught.

[@ScannerDanner]

I will help you however I can. Thank you! I look forward to your questions on the premium videos

[@eyesalooking]

@@ScannerDanner Wow! didn't expect a reply since this video is a few years old.

[@Tony-rl2fr]

Amazingly informative presentation. Thank you so much! At 58 years old I still find this fascinating. I spent a couple thousand on a nice Pico rig about 20+ years ago and it's amazing how much you can learn just from diving in. I've been out of the professional auto repair business for 35 years but still do a lot of my own work. Unfortunately my rig was stolen years ago but watching this has kind of reignighted my curiosity. I may have to get another Pico to keep me out of trouble 😉. Danner, great job, thank you.

[@lucianlucian9911]

Paul is the living proof that when you understand things from their basic principles you can make others really understand them as well. Good job Paul, you are a great teacher! You should pursue a scientific career...if time allows.

[@ScannerDanner]

Thanks so much Lucian!

[@thomasjimenez6930]

thank you SD for been such amazing human and teacher at the same time Im 57 yrs old I used to sell tacos for 17yrs I didnt know nothing about cars now I own to shops recently bought me the uscope and the new pico scope with the transducer and still have the verus pro and I love to see your videos keep doing this so we can continue learnig from the best.

Thank you my friend

[@movingupautodiagnostics8645]

Since I have a pocket scope, this class helped me a lot understanding how to use this tool. Waveform interpretation is one topic you covered very well on your book, which I recommend 💯 %. Thanks for all your work Paul. Shalom my brother.

I have the greatest respect for those who teach. Not being contented until there is an outlet for the Knowledge that resides within. I am sure you learn from your students too. Happy Holidays Mr. Danner

[@ScannerDanner]

More than you know!

[@billrimmer5596]

The info on trigger setting, horizontal and vertical parts of the waveform was great. Spark and burn time. I also liked the oscillations at the beginning of the current ramp being an indicator of the presence of a secondary winding. Thank u.

[@TheGibby3340]

Very nicely compressed lesson on basic scope operation and ignition waveform interpretation all in under an hour. Thankyou Mr. Danner.

Exelent stuff mr D... No one ive seen has realy explained those wave forms like that...this is one of many i will be noteing for future referance.

[@NobodyAskedForThis]

Case in point, I had a P0301. Cylinder 6 and 7 had no compression. Also, misfires aren't the only thing that can cause misfire codes. Misfire monitors, in my opinion, can only be trusted to tell you that the crankshaft slowed down. Bad ujoints, bad engine mounts etc can cause the crankshaft to slow down and can cause misfire codes. I've seen it myself.

[@olaf3613]

I came across your videos researching a Jeep 4 liter cam/crank sensor phasing search. Next thing I know 3 hours went by. Keep up the good work. BTW, BNC is short for bayonet naval connector.

No problem thanks brother keep up the good work and God bless.

[@Thefox2000unit]

Excellent vid. Wee question. On the secondary circuit you said there was a fault on snap acceleration because the first vertical line didn't rise, but then straight away when you tested another hv lead and the vertical line went out of the screen you said it was because of a misfire.

[@Zahcosta]

Mr Danner, good afternoon. how to diagnose misfire caused by spark plug gap? how to determine the correct spark plug gap when there is no possibility to change coil charging time, or any other parameter of the ignition system? Thanks in advance.

How could anyone thumbs down this video? They must be parts changers

[@Viper81766]

They are jealous of Paul's knowledge and capabilities .

[@ScannerDanner]

haters is all and they never comment

[@Viper81766]

ScannerDanner The other day I read some comments on a John MacArthur video where he gave a eulogy for RC Sproul and a commenter called MacArthur self serving and egotistical . People are jealous when you know your talent in life and if they are not willing to apply themselves to be better it is their loss. We watch your videos to better ourselves and thank God for your talent .

[@ScannerDanner]

I used to think the same thing about MacArthur when I first started listening to him. Now He is my favorite teacher/preacher of the Word. Funny that you mentioned him. Thanks for the comment brother.

[@Viper81766]

ScannerDanner several years back when I started watching your videos we got on the topic of faith in Christ and we got to talking about liking MacArthur . Your videos are a type of ministry in that you not only bless techs with education , you also help many people with fixing their transportation to keep their jobs, get their children to school and the doctor and have a way to church to worship . You have a gift in teaching a difficult topic in a clear yet detailed way . No words can say thank you enough my brother in Christ . A million thumbs up to you .

This is a good video because a possible trans code is there and I've been wondering, how far do you take it with transmission codes? Do you send it to the trans shop or do you see if it's engine related. Maybe a video on how you proceed and the distance you go.

[@ScannerDanner]

I will troubleshoot transmission electrical circuits but when it gets internal, I'm done.

[@Ashroyer86]

[@andrewwmacfadyen6958]

Just bought your first scope ? Just thinking about buying one ? Already have one but not making use of it ? This video is a gresat starting point for using a simple oscilloscope for secondary ignition misfire, More at www.scannerdanner.com

[@ScannerDanner]

Thanks Andy!

[@seasonedtoker]

Dan is it possible to detect misfires on control O2 sensors values alone? For example, we have a wideband probe precat and narrowband postcat for control. If the control probe is periodically hitting really low numbers (like 0.1V), can this be an indication of a misfire, too? Let's say the manifold and the exhaust is absolutely leakproof...

[@ScannerDanner]

Scan data O2 values can be used as a guide, but alone? No. You can scope an O2 signal and then sync off of an ignition firing event and use that to find the offending cylinder, but this test is very difficult to do and interpret

[@seasonedtoker]

@@ScannerDanner thanks! It is actually a case, where ECU is not the best at reporting and detecting intermittent misfires becausenit constantly wanta to equalize cylinders inside the bank (it is a Bosch unit that reports a cylinder rough running parameter), it constantly reports faulty pte cats and post cats, cat efficiency... All that has been replaced twice, checked for air leaks and exhaust leaks... It always reports control probes ageing even when new. And I can see them drop really low, then normalize without the precats even reacting to that drop.

[@ScannerDanner]

haha thanks man

[@IamKurr]

@scannerdanner I have a capacitive pickup that is very similar to the one you use. I use it with my verus and a small handheld similar to this one. It will not show nearly as much detail with the spark event as the ones I have seen you use. Connections are correct. Do you think it is just because it may be a cheap knockoff? Thanks, justin

[@northpostman]

Hi Paul, what type of screen are you using that will allow you to control your presentation like that?

[@ChicoMds]

1:53 I can't figure out why some of the DIS ignition systems' waveform(s) look that way . Low firing lines falling that way I would truly appreciate an answer, ive been searching but havent found anything

[@jpack61108]

Pretty good scope info in this one.

[@oscaralarcon6695]

Hi good video 🔥So fire line is compression, flat line is spark .If I have compression or spark in my car .Am I able to see that in a regular scanner tool?

[@ScannerDanner]

Firing line is not just compression but is affected by it. And no, you need a scope to see this stuff. Thanks for watching!

[@Mr2004MCSS]

I know this is an older video but I have a question and maybe you will see it. Can these bad ignition components take out the ignition control module that the coils are mounted to? I have a 92 Cavalier with the 2.2L with this type of waste spark system and I've had to replace the ICM several times over the years. Usually I also replaced the coils and wires after the ICM went out and sometimes the plugs because I was always told to do so. I didn't know if bad ignition components were causing these failures or I was just getting bad ICM's. The last ICM replacement was last November and that one only lasted about 11,000 miles and I was running one new coil and one older one. After the ICM failed I found a crack in one of the coils.

[@ScannerDanner]

Ignition coils that are shorted can definitely cause premature module failure, as well as open plugs and plug wires, but my guess is you are dealing with shit parts. Our field is plagued by them these days. Don't buy your parts online.

[@Mr2004MCSS]

@@ScannerDanner Thanks for the reply. I think the one that only lasted 11,000 miles was a Standard brand and I replaced it with another one since they have lifetime warranties but it sucks to get stranded somewhere when they go out. I may have to get an AC-Delco one if this current one goes out though they are not cheap. I had decent luck with the Borg Warner ones years ago but I don't know if they still make them or not.

[@ScannerDanner]

@@Mr2004MCSS Standard Motor Products (SMP) is a reputable company, but these older systems, it can be hit or miss these days. Probably even with AC Delco

[@Mr2004MCSS]

@@ScannerDanner I know Standard has been around awhile since I used to buy their parts for my 1970 Monte Carlo back in the late 80's early 90's. I know a lot of aftermarket parts are junk these days so I didn't know if they went in that direction as well. On this last failure I replaced the ICM, both coils, new AC Delco platinum plugs and AC Delco plug wires. Hopefully they will all last awhile. The ICM and coils are Standard brand.

[@ScannerDanner]

@@Mr2004MCSS There really is nothing else that will cause these ICMs to fail, so fingers crossed. The only other possibility is the ground for the ICM. I don't remember if it is the housing or if it uses an external ground. If the housing it bolts to is corroded it is possible that none of these are failing and you are just losing a ground over time. Then unbolting it and bolting it back up is what is really restoring operation. I just checked a diagram and I think this one does ground on the housing. Can you get me a voltage reading on the black/red wire with the engine running? It should be very near 0 volts.

[@mugsymydog]

Paul, In your book do you describe where to attach the leads for lab scope when performing tests ?

[@ScannerDanner]

I do and it will be different for the tests you are doing. Thank you! Remember, I offer a full refund on the eBook is you are not completely satisfied. You have nothing to lose.

[@markcookson3519]

time :34.29 its actually back emf that your seeing as on oscillation rather than reserve energy its actually wasted energy as it is not big enough to produce another spark

[@turbobuick33]

The plug wire clamp @ 8:20, does that come with the U Scope?

[@gavinmendez4729]

You're an awesome instructor thank you I just now subscribe

[@joelserrano9105]

Quick question about the spark line not increasing on the snap, if my sample rate is not enough could I have this issue on not having an spark line not increasing due to sampling rate?

[@ScannerDanner]

If you are using a time base where you are watching one ignition event, then no, most likely it is not a sample rate issue as to why you are not seeing what you want. This is because you are on such a small time base. It is long time bases where you will run into sampling issues.

[@murlecampbell8360]

Paul, How MUCH of a straight up line constitutes a bad ramp waveform. Just missing occilations or to what hieght of a straight up line is considered "bad", or ANY form of a straight up line?

[@ScannerDanner]

lot's of variables on coil ramps. Some systems you cannot even see the turn on oscillations. In general, no straight up lines on anything that is creating a magnetic field. But you also need to consider the waveform characteristics on the other coils. The ones that are working properly

[@murlecampbell8360]

ScannerDanner Thank you very much sir......

[@joopterwijn]

You say in class: “no primary coil osculation, means you have secondary coil problems”. It should be you have a “secondary problem” could be the coil, plug or cable (or combinations). Thx for this excellent vid!

[@ScannerDanner]

Agree and I have done case studies on a smashed spark plug causing this. Sorry for the mistake in my wording.
