Help understanding vacuum test

Adjust the timing light knob so the timing mark on the balancer is at zero, then read where the knob is pointing at which will be your timing.

That's the other way to do it.

I love my timing lite

It's the second advance light I've owned, first one suffered from belt/wire introduction. What a mess....

Definitely use much care with your wired light, it has many uses beyond checking/setting timing. The rpm factor alone helps immensely with troubleshooting

I love my timing lite

One of these?

 

[dubs283]

Yep

First one was a Mac tools branded one

Got the above pic/mentioned one via Cornwell, I think brand is Innova?

In any case, current light provides ample support for investigation

I think brand is Innova?

Yep. Same as mine.

In any case, current light provides ample support for investigation

Again, yep. Volts, revs, timing, dwell (for when I venture into vintage territory). Great instrument.

Chris......

I think I promised a story a while back....did tell, to bondo.
