Ace Misfire Detective
ACE Misfire Detective Software
"A really great tool, it not only
picks up on
misfires but even things you can't feel that just affect
one cylinder like slightly dirty injectors." --

The
ACE Misfire Detective Solution:
- No more guessing which cylinder is causing the problem
- Identify misfires by cylinder on all gasoline engines by simply pressing a button
- Save time in repairing rough engine problems by diagnosing the root cause of misfires
- Save costs in repairing engine misfire problems: no more swapping parts and hoping for the best
- Identify even partial misfires — helping to sell and justify the benefits of fuel injector cleaning
- Save time diagnosing quivering engine idle problems by quickly determining whether a drivability issue is coming
from a misfire or engine mounts.
At times even the ECM can’t detect the misfire so relying on scan tool data is not always the solution. Thompson Auto
Labs have developed a proven system that cures this headache. No more guessing which cylinder is causing the problem.
Finally, A.C.E. software opens another view into the combustion chamber and provides the answers that you need. To find a
misfire, just follow these four steps:
- Just start the A.C.E software on your computer.
- Select the manufacturer and engine type.
- Connect one lead to an ignition reference for #1 cylinder and connect the other lead to the FirstLook™ sensor
in the tailpipe.
- Click Start. It's that simple!
- With the push of a button, ACE Misfire Detective identifies all misfires by cylinder on all gasoline engines--European,
Asian, and American!
- Saves time in repairing rough engine problems by giving direction to diagnosing the root cause of misfires!
- Detects even very intermittent type misfires, the most difficult type of misfire to accurately pinpoint!
- Detects whether misfires are originating from just one cylinder or multiple cylinders!
- Identifies even partial misfires, selling the benefits of fuel injector cleaning for you and justifying the need for
your customers!
- Saves time and pressure in diagnosing rough running engine problems by quickly determining whether a drivability issue
is coming from the engine (misfire) or other drive train systems (torque converter shudder, motor or transmission mounts
etc)
- A.C.E. also can determine whether the misfire is more likely to be an issue related to compression, air/fuel (lambda)
mixture, or ignition thus saving your auto technician hours of work. You get suggestions and reports on the most likely
cause of the misfire.
You don’t need years of experience to get results;
A.C.E. completes the analysis for you!
How it works
ACE software analyzes the exhaust pulse train
to identify the lower than normal pulses coming from the exhaust stroke of a
misfiring cylinder.
Updates can be downloaded from the internet at startup.
What
you need
ACE Misfire does not require any complicated equipment: an A/D converter to digitize the exhaust train, an inductive
pick-up, and a FirstLook Diagnostic Sensor. All of these are included in the ACE
Detective Kit .
Find misfires fast
With ACE Misfire Detective you can save time locating misfires. The ACE Misfire software will effortlessly detect even
the slightest misfires no matter how elusive they may be to conventional detection methods.
The ACE Misfire software can also be used as a preventive maintenance tool that can show you when the injectors need
to be cleaned and even print a report of before and after results that you can give to your customers.
