FEATURE...Father's Day

FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 26, 2004

Whether dad's a full-blown grease monkey, occasional tinkerer or "wanna be" weekend mechanic, we have an automotive gift idea that's sure to please. Equus Products, Inc., offers these suggestions for Father's Day and everyday:

-- INNOVA(R) 3100 OBD II Code Reader. Find out why the "CHECK

ENGINE" light illuminated on 1996 & newer cars, trucks and

SUVs with this hand-held OBD2 code reader. Dad doesn't have to

be a mechanic or computer guru to use this tool. It's the most

user-friendly OBD2 code reader on the market today, with

100,000 satisfied customers. Just plug it into the vehicle's

universal connector (usually found under the dashboard), push

a button and get all necessary information on one large screen

in about 10 seconds. If any trouble codes appear, access the

included manual to define the problem. It's great to use

before going to the mechanic, taking a road trip, buying a

used car or attempting repairs yourself. It can even save you

a costly and embarrassing trip to the repair shop for a minor

problem such as a loose gas cap. Once repairs are made, it

lets you turn off the "CHECK ENGINE" light. The INNOVA(R) 3100

OBD II Code Reader is retail priced from $100 to $160. For

information, visit www.CodeReader.com.

-- iEquus Performance(TM) 8080 5" Shift Light Tachometer. Unless

dad's a die-hard do-it-yourselfer, he can probably do without

the usual hassles and costs associated with installing a high

performance tachometer. That's why -- right out of the box --

this super lightweight tach is ready to install on most

popular vehicles using your choice of hardwire or worlds'

first inductive pickup options. Suggested retail: $129 to

$170.

-- INNOVA(R) 3585 5-Piece Test & Tune-Up Kit. This promotional

kit is great for performing basic at-home tune-ups and

preventative maintenance. It features the 3551 Inductive

Timing Light, which works on most domestic and import

vehicles, including those with distributorless ignition

systems. It also includes the 3210 Compression Tester, 3220

Vacuum Gauge, 3230 Remote Starter Switch and 4320 Digital

Multimeter. Packaged in a briefcase-style carrying case;

retail priced under $100.

-- INNOVA(R) 3721 Battery & Charging System Monitor. Easily plugs

into the cigarette lighter to let dads, grads and mom monitor

battery and charging system voltage from the comfort of their

vehicle. It features LCD display with bar graph to measure

voltage, color-coded LEDs to identify the battery's charge

status, and pivoting head for easy viewing. Suggested retail

price: $25.
