I recently scoped the Hall-Effect sensor on my 91 Saab 900 (4 cyl, electronic ignition w/one coil, distrib, rotor), which has an narrow-band RPM related bucking problem
The pattern _appeared_ to be good to my untrained eye - just wanted to ask about one possible glitch
It essentially looks like the lower horizontal trace pair here
Quite consistent square corners (the vertical portion of the trace is missing, but I've been somewhat reassured that that's normal, given the short time of the switching event), w/some horizontal movement/creeping corresponding w/RPM changes.
But occasionally I get an clear/abrupt horizontal/left-to-right(?) shift
Is the square pattern all's that really important (input Vref is stable), to ck a H-E sensor, or should the immed above be cause for concern?
If not, I plan to proceed to getting some other appropriate probes to run the ignition system (knock sensor appeared to be good, but may also need to get some 1:1s to see better)
