[Healeys] Timing Light

[John Sims]

I have a Craftsman Professional (Sear) Advance Inductive Timing Light --
Metal case which I use on my positive ground BN6 and I love it.

Dan:
The manual states "some after market ignition systems and/or specialty  
spark plug wires (solid core wires, racing wires, off road wires)  
radiate above normal levels of EMI and RFI (can cause problems)". I  
have a stock ignition and coil with carbon core wires in my BN7. I had  
no problem. Same with my XKE with solid core wires.
The manual also states that " it may be necessary to replace the #1  
plug wire with O.E. style wire during testing"

I'll be interested to see what Jeff Schlemmer has to say.

Is there not a problem with the inductive timing lights and carbon  
core plug
wires getting an inaccurate reading?

Hello Price,
I bought a "Innova Pro". Not cheap. Inductive input, off set
adjustment, dwell angle,and RPM . No more scratching little marks on
the damper and trying to rig up a mirror so I can see the cars Tach.
love it!

Listers -



I have an old timing light that has finally given up on me.  Are there
suggestions on reasonably priced/inexpensive but good quality timing
lights that can do what I need to do?



Thank you.
