Can someone recommend a make and model number for a peak reading multimeter for testing my '89 Johnson GT150 timer base?<br /><br />Thanks a bunch,<br />Duck L.

Fluke 88 will do... Also check out the Eastwood Company for there automotive multimeter it costs much less.

Look at www.esitest.com for adapter, Fluke 88 will not read peak voltage without adapter.

Hello Duck<br />any multi-meter will do ,just multiply the reading by 1.414 that value will be peak.<br /> Hope this helps.

Most Fluke or other digital meters will not accurately read the pulsing DC voltage output from a timer base, it's not AC. You need a DVI adapter or a peak reading voltmeter to do it right.
