Tool recommendations please

Hello guys and gals,

I'm in need of a timing light with advance feature and a burette kit for cc'ing.

What do you recommend? Any experiences good or bad with specific brands?

cheers

 

I could say that not alot of people use burettes but timing lights?

come'on guys give me some feedback please

 

i got a gunson timing light from machine mart, used a couple of times, very easy to use!

 

In the past I've bought syringes with scale marks on them from ebay to do CCing. Not as accurate as a proper burette, but probably good enough for working out the CR.

 

I have an Equus (Innova) Pro timing light.

Awesome bit of kit.

Fantastic if you want to plot out distributor advance curves or just want to tweak timing.

Thanks for the reply mate but i'm really after a better one than this. I don't care about the price, i just want something good that will last. 3/4 of my tools are snap on but i got very bad feedback about their timing lights

 

Hi Mike, I'm looking for a class A burette and obviously this is because of their accuracy. I don't want to be close but exact. It seems though that i cannot find much info on them in the uk. I even went to the biology/chemistry department of the uni and they don't have any burettes - only flasks and other not helpfull stuff. Too bad, i could borrow one from there forever

 

Hi Pet, this looks a nice bit of kit and reasonably priced. How long do you have it for?

Thanks man. Are you using one of these?

 

Not personally just had seen a fisher catalogue lying around in a workshop where people had burettes.

 

So..you've seen one of these in that workshop?

 

Yeah but i couldnt tell you which one and not likely to be back their anytime soon sorry. But any grade a one should do for you. Just make sure you know how many cc's you need/

 

Yeah no problems with that. I also think that any class a one should be fine. Thanks for the help

 

I've had this for a few years now. I take good care of it but it's obviously built to take continuous workshop usage.

The detachable leads are great. Easily replaceable if you damage a lead in a moving part.

I tend to hook up all the leads before plugging the gun in.

It's help me diagnose dizzy advance issues and set up dwell angles on the one car I've got that still has points.

 

Peter - I went for it. Placed my order yesterday. It seems that many people in the US are using this timing light and no one says a bad word about it.

 

Thanks to everyone's input on this thread

 

You won't be disappointed they're an awesome thing to use.

Glad I could help.

 

I'll comment quality-wise when it comes home

Appreciate your help
