I just use your basic inductive timing light.


There are others with a lot of bells, whistles and doodads but they just confuse me

I would go to NAPA or Sears and buy a "middle priced" light as it will last you for years. You will be able to find some for less $ but they may not give you service for your $$ spent.

Hope this is helpful!

Yep.....I just bought an inductive light from Sears, was around $30. Brand was Actron. Works great, and Made in USA.
