The One Diagnostic Tool Every Enthusiast Needs in Their Toolbox
Everyone remembers their first mechanic’s tool set. That 200-piece tool kit in the plastic case you bought to replace your first water pump or maybe to install that hot carb and intake kit you saved up for. Without that tool kit you’d be in a world of hurt trying to get the job done right. Over the years that tool kit grew to a full on tool box full of sockets, wrenches, ratchets, and more as your mechanical abilities and repair needs grew. Aside from these hand tools there are a few select specialty tools every enthusiast will eventually need, including things like a multimeter, a good pair of wire strippers/crimpers, an accurate torque wrench, and of course, an inductive timing light. These specific tools will make those tough repair jobs or diagnostic/tuning needs that much easier.
Digital Accuracy with LED Display and A Super Bright Xenon Flash
Having an engine timing light in your quiver of diagnostic tools means you can easily check such functions as base timing, timing advance over an rpm range, total timing by a specific rpm, and more. These features on a modern digital timing light allow you to check and set base timing, adjust your ignition timing advance or retard (both vacuum and mechanical settings if present), and confirm total timing is “all in” by a certain rpm value. If you have an aftermarket performance ignition you can verify such things as rev limiter, timing advance or retard during specific functions (engine start up for example), and more. Our LED display makes reading these values easy, allowing quick changes between reading rpm and timing at the push of a button.
Compatible with both 2-cycle and 4-cycle engines using 12-volt ignition systems, our digital timing light with advance features five foot power and ground battery connections as well as a five-foot-long inductive pickup, providing ample length for wire connections no matter where your timing pointer is on your engine. The power and ground connections mean there are no internal batteries to worry about leaking over time or having to plug your adjustable timing light in to recharge an internal battery. The display reads up to 9,000 rpm and timing advance from 0-90 degrees, allowing you to use this adjustable timing light on everything from your daily driver to your race car. The bright Zenon flash bulb provides an intense white light that makes reading timing marks on your crankshaft damper easier, and the trigger activation means the Xenon bulb only flashes when the trigger is pulled, extending the service life of your bulb. Finally, the tough ABS plastic housing features rubber protective ends to survive the typical drops and accidental contact with moving engine parts.
We’re betting your current ignition timing light has seen better days (and probably doesn’t have nearly the features of this advance timing light with Xenon bulb and LED display). Or perhaps you don’t have a good timing light just yet and are currently growing that new tool collection. Either way, the Speedway Motors inductive timing light with advance will be a great addition to your toolbox. Just remember the golden rule of tool borrowing; if someone asks to borrow the same tool more than once, they need to get their own!
