I need to buy a timing light,any recomendations

[jims427400]

VNV,
I saw that light on summit web site,the problem I have is if I buy things w/too many bells and whistles,I can't figure out how to use them.

I did that w/ a car sterio once for the boat and I'm still regretting it.Too complicated..

It sure looks nice though but prob. will get the sears model.

Thanks you your advice.. Jim

I have the Snap On MT2261 and I use it once a month in the driving season

Best timing light I found and I've had it for a while.

Heh Don.... It's hard to beat the Quality of a "Snap On" Product..Worth every penny..!! Like Stepinwolf says.. "Cheap tools can cost you more in the long run"..... At least that's how I think he says it..:L

Well...I"ll have to wait to use it after Kid_Again brings it back... I'm sure when it arrives Kid will be over to borrow it to time his Heater Blower Motor or Roller Rocker Arms or something ...Before I even get to use it...

Your also welcome to try it out if you need to...

I told ya Jim. Biggest problem with having one is getting to use it cause your friends have got it. VNV just proves it!!

Here's the $75.00 Actron CP-7519 dial-back light; calibrates exactly to the Snap-On light (neighbor has one of those).
