Re: tIGER TIMER
15,000,000+ Model T's came from the factory with a roller type timer. I go back and forth between New Day and roller type. Clean the contacts, oil, install, check timing, keep lubed and clean out every so often. The only drawback, is if the front cover is not centered over the cam shaft. Changes the firing between the 4 cylinders. You can have cylinders firing early and late.

Re: tIGER TIMER
An "era" original Tiger timer has a maroon colored insulator ring whereas the more recent reproduction has a more orange colored ring - easy way to distinguish.
