Introduction
The ANCEL SP21 Spark Plug Tester is a diagnostic tool designed to quickly and accurately assess the firing quality of spark plugs. It features a dual-hole design, allowing for simultaneous testing and comparison of two spark plugs. This device simulates actual engine ignition conditions with an adjustable RPM range, providing clear visual feedback on spark intensity and consistency. It is an essential tool for identifying faulty spark plugs that may cause issues such as slow starts, weak acceleration, or high fuel consumption in various 12V gasoline engines.

Follow these steps to test spark plugs using the ANCEL SP21:

Figure 3: Visual guide for operating the spark plug tester.
- Insert Spark Plugs: Place one or two spark plugs into the test holes (sockets). Both sockets must contain a spark plug for the unit to operate. Ensure they are seated firmly.
- Attach Protective Cover: Carefully place the clear protective cover over the spark plug sockets. The device will not function unless the cover is properly seated and activates the safety switch.
- Adjust Working Frequency (RPM): Turn the Knob Switch (6) to select the desired working frequency, simulating engine RPMs from 0 to 6000 RPM. A setting of 2000 RPM is often sufficient for general spark behavior testing. The higher the set frequency, the stronger the spark intensity.
- Сыноону баштоо: Press and hold the main power button (part of the knob switch assembly) to begin the test.
- Спаркты байкаңыз: Through the clear protective cover, observe the spark activity of the inserted spark plugs.
- A strong, consistent blue spark indicates a healthy spark plug.
- A weak, intermittent, or absent spark indicates a faulty or failing spark plug.
- The High Voltage Indicator Lights (3 & 4) will illuminate when high voltage is present at the respective spark plug socket. The Power Indicator (5) will show the device is on.
- Жыйынтыктарды салыштырыңыз: The dual-hole design allows for direct comparison between two spark plugs, making it easier to identify a problematic plug.
- Сыноонун жыйынтыгы: Release the power button to stop the test. Turn the Knob Switch to "OFF" when finished.

Коопсуздук чаралары
Adhere to the following safety guidelines when using the spark plug tester:
- Always Use Protective Cover: The clear protective cover is crucial for safety. It prevents accidental contact with high voltage and shields against sparks. Ensure it is properly installed before operating the device.
- Жогорку Voltage Эскертүү: Бул аппарат жогорку вольтту чыгаратtage. Do not touch the spark plugs or the internal components while the tester is operating.
- Туура желдетүү: Тестиерди жакшы желдетилүүчү жерде колдонуңуз.
- Электр энергиясын өчүрүү: Disconnect the power cable from the outlet when the tester is not in use or before performing any maintenance.
- Чоңдор үчүн гана колдонуу: This device is intended for use by adults with knowledge of automotive diagnostics.
