Subject: Engine Start/Shutdown Noise Spikes From Automobile
From: Richard Schneider cfi2fly@.........

Situation:  High amplitude spikes when starting and again on shutdown of
engine from automobile.

 Sensor is about 3 feet from car.

EMF appears to come from auto alternator since I can see it upon engine
shutdown.

Any suggestions would be appreciated to mitigate the EMF from the sensor
pickup coil without relocating it.

 How about a lead shield?  The kind the dentist uses for X-ray's.
