Tell me what you guys think!
thank you!

 

I got their model with tack and digital advance/retard at the push of a button. I was skeptical at first because of the name but I actually like it. No tach on the truck so this helps out a lot. It even has a flashlight mode. It was about $90 though for this one.

 

I have the harbor freight one with the advance dial. I like mine.

 

I have had two the 2nd one is plain with a light it works good, just don't drop it that is what killed the 1st one.

 

I have the fancier actron with the tach, digital display and advance, the expensive one at Oreilly's. Works great for what I've needed it for.

 

I'm going all over this forum reviving things

So, I'm getting a timing light and doing this myself..

I found a simple light, no advance anything.. but from what I understand the pulley has the markings on it that I can use to advance or retard the timing... Is this correct? Am I correct in saying that i DON'T need a fancy light with advance options?

Thanks !

 

Just a basic light is all you need.
Yardsale- $5-$10

 

Hi guys,

I'm debating whether to get:

Digital Combined Timing light and Tach ( ) for $78, OR

Getting basic Inductive Timing light ( ) AND Tach-Dwell analyzer ( ), Total of $58

I like the simplicity and reliability (i.e., if timing light breaks I still have the tach) of the "basic" ones, but I also like the space-saving of the combo.

Have you got first-hand experience with any of the above that I should take into consideration?

TIA

 

I dont have experience woth these, but wanted to share my thought. I purchased a cheapo one. 25 bucks or something. Everytime I use it I have to wrap the induction loop with alum. foil. So my advice is make sure these are properly designed and built.
