I’ve bought a Gunson digimeter 320 and was hoping to use the RPM feature for my triumph spitfire.

It doesn’t have a manual, does anyone have one please? Or know how to use the RPM with two leads?

Thanks

I expect you'll need to connect the -ve lead to vehicle ground and the +ve lead to the coil -ve terminal. This will give you a square wave at the ignition frequency. The meter has switch positions for common cylinder counts which will just divide the frequency by the corresponding factor.

ETA: If the dwell figures come out wrong, connect the two leads across the coil instead. This will give you the same frequency but the inverse duty cycle.

Yes quite a lot, one even linked back here to PH with exactly the same question.

If the PH one referred to is from 2015 the link in it no longer works.
Website 'manualslib' does list several Gunson products but not the 320.
Gunson's website doesn't appear to show it either.

Sorry I can't be of any help, have been though much of Google search results and had no joy

Lol, i'm not sitting here clicking on all the PDFs to download them for you, DIY laugh
Regardless of that it'll soon be Monday, then you can contact Gunsons direct for one.

He didn't but thought he'd be a smart arse in his replies.

I spent a good 45 mins one boring morning when you first posted your OP looking for one as I thought it should be an easy thing to find, but despite a few promising looking links none of them actually got to a on line version of the manual or handbook. And yes I even tried the Gunson own website to se if they had a decent support site to download from, they don't! smile
