Exhaust analyzers

Can anyone recommend a decent exhaust analyzer for less than $3,000 or $4,000.
There seems to be some arguments whether to use a 3,4 or 5 gas analyzer.

Raising service to a new level.
maybe you checked with the home heating meter division of Kane, since I am strongly under the opinion that "KAL" is "Kane Automotive Labs" but I know of a few auto parts stores that carry a Kane tailpipe 1 gas sniffers...
and I have one, but I have had it for so many years that I would not expect the price (or current design) to be all that close to what I have.
If I was buying one today, in the USA, I might go to the northern tool web site; www dot northerntool dot com, and copy paste this to the last part of the URL ;
webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_6970_200318179_200318179

or search "exhaust gas analyzer" on their site.

I looked on the Kane Automotive web site in the UK when I got home, for distributors and they have one in BC, definately cover exhaust gas analizers.

I checked with Kane. They only make analyzers for use in home heating systems.

Try Googling Kane Automotive, I bought mine from them. I bought a single gas analiser (CO) only, because thats all you can really influance if you tune the carb. make sure you get a stainless probe as the tail pipe temperature is higher than a car as its short. Its OK at idle but when you set the power valve on the Impco carb it melts the standard heat resisting rubber probe. But depends what you want to do. Prentice has a sniffer for measuring general CO in the air, normally used where people are working and you want to check if the air polution is too high. It would be no good stuffing that up a tail pipe!
Can I ask why you want to measure more than just CO?

I have a KAL R-89 hand held unit which sells for about $400.00. The KAL unit only measures carbon monoxide. I was looking for something more precise than that without spending $3,000.00

I purchased a hand held unit for around $250.00 (CND) It's not the same as a tail pipe sniffer but it measures CO levels in a large area.
