I bought this from my cousin, who is closing up his shop, Ball Tire, in Fresno after 50 years. They were one of the few shops around this area that serviced new and old iron. He had to liquidate everything inside the business, as Bridgestone Company owns the building, land etc. Most all of the employees, including the Manager, found other local jobs, which is great. I ended up buying a metal workbench, some metal storage cabinets, bench grinder, tire pry tools, vintage rubbish cans, an old metal "oily rag" can and this 70's era "Atlas Motor Analyzer. I brought it home, plugged in in and everything seems to work! The four lighted windows are Amps-Dwell, RPM, Vacuum, and Volt-Ohm. There are also 8 "Cylinder Selection" buttons, 6 "Ignition Selector" settings, "Volt-Ohms Calibrate" button, and for safety, an "Engine Kill" switch. All the connections, including what looks like a timing-light gun are there. Also it has a video screen which can be used to compare cylinders. I've never used this kind of analyzer before...I have a copy of the owner's manual, so I will be able to dig into the details, but I was curious as to member's experience with these vintage machines.
