I need to get some electrical diagnostic equipment. I have nothing right now, save a vacuum gauge. I was at Autozone yesterday and saw some kind of nice-looking ones by...um...is it Sunpro that makes the timing light that Summit sells? It's by that same company. Anyway, they had three different ones ranging from about $30 to around $60 or $70.
Anybody got some favorites or recommendations?

I love my Snap-On electronic timing light. It cost $275.00 but it is worth every penny. It does advance and retard. It has a Tach built in, you can use it with one hand while doing adjustments. It is lightwight, and very durrable. The price might not be for everyone, but if you get the chance check one out, you will want one. That's what happened to me, just had to have it after using it one time.

I do have a timing light. It's made by Actron (think I spelled that right). It does have the dial-back feature. That light of yours better be the bees knees for that kind of bread!
