Burn baby burn.

Today we’re measuring and analysing the combustion process.

We can tell much about the efficiency of the engine as machine, which turns HC and O2 into power, using this method.

We can get significant indicators as to the root cause of running problems when we analyse 4 or 5 gasses.

Master Techs ace this technique. How about you? Are you cool with ‘sniffing’ gasses?

Of course - cookies. A classic sharing pack.

Both the excellent taste and unbounded generosity of our friends and clients is awesome.

But, do they better the mighty Jaffa Cake?

The jury is still out on that one.

Transit Action today.

The very latest in Ford diesel emission technologies.

High and Low Pressure EGR, AdBlue, Particular Matter Sensors and much more besides.

All this stuff - there’s money in emissions.

Intermittent electrical fault that “disappears” when you look at it? Use the wiggle test while watching live data or voltage and make the fault show itself.

If you’re into diagnostics but you’re not using your scope yet, you’re missing the tool that turns “I think” into "I know."

Oscilloscope Masterclass — 2 & 3 March

Over two days, you’ll learn a repeatable, real‑world scope workflow that takes the guesswork out of testing circuits and sensors.

We’ll cover:

- Scope setup, triggers and advanced triggers — so you're getting clean, repeatable captures every time
- Multi-channel relationship testing — comparing two, three and four signals simultaneously to see how systems actually interact
- In-cylinder pressure and exhaust pulse analysis — the tests that separate diagnostic technicians from parts replacers
- Ignition, sensors, current and pressure — using current clamps, pressure transducers and wideband O2 testing to go beyond voltage

You’ll get hands-on time with real-world faults, so you leave ready to use your scope Monday morning.

Secure your place now.

⏰Starts on 2nd March

We’re in need dear friends of TTHQ.

Can you help? Our usual hire provider has come up short.

We need a Ford Transit Euro 6, any chassis type, for 5 days next week (Monday 23rd to Friday 27th). For an AdBlue course and a Ford FDRS course.

We’ll use the van as a demo vehicle for serial data, some scope testing and other checks and tests.

Get in touch if you can help. We can pay commercial hire rate, swap for training or provide you with a ‘like for like’ vehicle in return.

70% of “oxygen sensor faults” aren’t the sensor.

P0130 on the scan tool is the messenger, not the diagnosis.

Remember the 4rights : measuring the right thing, in the right way, at the right time, with the right tool.

If you want to stop guessing and start proving with a scope, the Oscilloscope Masterclass will level up your speed, confidence, and accuracy on real-world fault finding.

Master Technician is the end goal. But what happens when you get there?

This is Master Technician Reaccreditation.

Last week we ran three reaccreditation sessions. We have almost 100 technicians going through reaccreditation with us this year—keeping their MT status active and their skills current.

The MT status is active for 3 years, so technicians complete assessments and CPD training annually to keep it active. It takes work to be the best, work that's worth doing.

Techs get to choose which topics they cover as part of the training. Last week they covered eeproms, coding and programming - soldering and desoldering chips, BDM reading and cloning ECUs.

Year after year we get to see the community and friendships that have been fostered. Most of these techs have been in the same group since day 1 and now have their own support network in the industry.

This is what staying qualified looks like.
