Default Snap On MT 2500

I am thinking about buying one. I understand that they were it in the 90's. I want to use it on my Gen2 XJ's, '96-01. In particular I want to be able to read the 'fuel or cam sync' and be able to make adjustments.
My current scan tool will not read this fuel/cam sync.

Has anyone used one? Any particular and details?

I have a MT-2500 for my Renix. I looked in the Domestic Vehicle Parameter Definition Manual for information.


The primary module I have goes to 1999. The manual shows these parameters that I think are what you are looking for:


Current Sync: range (OK/LOST): This parameter indicates whether the camshaft position (CMP) and crankshaft position (CKP) sensor signals are synchronous. It reads OK if the signals are synchronous and reads LOST if they are not.


Fuel Sync: Range (+/-): On 1987-90 4.0 MPI engines, a synchronous signal generator located in the distributor send this fuel sync signal to the PCM. The PCM uses this signal in conjunction with the engine speed sensor signal to maintain the proper fuel injector firing order. When the engine is running, the display should be switching steadily between a + and negative reading.


Hope this helps. I think these are great tools.
