BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE
Connect an exhaust hose or hoses (if dual exhaust) on the vehicle, make sure the hose
fits over the tail pipe, is not plugged or kinked and the hose is vented correctly out of
the dyno room.
Engine exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide gas. Breathing it
could cause death. Operate machine in well ventilated area.
ENGINE WARM UP
Warm the vehicle’s engine and drivetrain before beginning testing. Consistent engine
temperatures will assure your runs are repeatable.
AFTER ENGINE WARM UP
Always leave the vehicle in neutral (automatic transmission) or in first gear (manual
transmission), with the engine off, and make sure the park brake and the dyno brake
are on when you get off the vehicle on the dyno.
• Fix any fuel, oil, or coolant leaks that may have shown up after engine warm up and
check the carburetor for leaks.
• Any loud or unusual engine noises or excessive exhaust smoke should be resolved
before continuing.
