Title: Timing Light Post by: Jesse/DVK on December 28, 2009, 15:57:34 pm I want to buy a timing light but could you guys advice me what kind of type I need to buy and which options I need.
Title: Re: Timing Light Post by: Bryan67 on December 28, 2009, 16:08:22 pm I`ve had the same basic chrome light from SEARS for about 20 years now. But I couldn`t tell you if what they sell now will last as long.

Did find my Sun after. Both work great.
