Must-Have Tool for Automotive Diagnostics

This timing light exceeded my expectations when I tried it on my car .The bright strobe light made it easy to see the timing marks and the clamps held securely to the spark plug wires. The inductive pickup eliminated any need for adapters or special wiring. The only downside is that the instructions could be a bit clearer for those who are not familiar with timing lights. Overall a great investment for any DIY mechanic or professional in the automotive industry..

Pros
  • Easy and intuitive to use
Cons
  • Not compatible with all types of vehicles, as it requires an inductive clamp

Good product at the right price

Simple and exactly what I needed for my 1970's classic car - just enough cord length . Bought 3 from Actron. Take extra care when unpacking - instructions are printed on card - I cut off the top - Oops. Also the packaging on this one was PITA. The wires are wrapped around an "indestructible" plastic bag - I had to cut them into pieces to get them - small nits. Good product at the right price.

Pros
  • For measuring and setting start timing, checking and measuring centrifugal advance and measuring vacuum advance
Cons
  • So far so good
