Can anyone recommend a good 6V timing light? The previous owner installed a Nu-Rex timing indicator on the front of the engine, and he left me the vendor instructions. However, I don't have a 6 volt timing light.

Re: Can anyone recommend a good 6V timing light? Use a buzz box, a test light, or a continuity tester instead. Align the mark on the pulley to whatever the desired degree number on the indicator, and then the points should just break or open at that location.

Just pay attention to the color of the battery leads. The red one goes to ground, if the car is wired to original positive ground. Then the black one goes to a power source; I use one of the brass wing nuts on the cover of the terminal box. My timing light uses inductive pickup (a small black end clamps around the ignition lead for plug #1). This is trickier to do with the original style bronze strips connecting from distributor body to spark plug. I slip a short piece of clear tubing over the bronze strip first, to insulate it from the induction pickup, then clamp over that. It works. :cool: |

Re: Can anyone recommend a good 6V timing light? This battery powered timing light works quite well. Just slip an insulating sleeve over the number 1 bronze strap.

Re: Can anyone recommend a good 6V timing light? I have powered my 12V timing light with my 6V/12V battery charger... just select 12V and power it up.
