caterhamnut Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 I'm looking to buy a timing light to replace the very cheap Halfords-purchased LED light I got about 10 years ago. I'm willing to spend a bit of money on something I'll use for years, and would like one that has a digital display that shows dwell, rpm etc etc aswell - can anyone recommend something? Failing that, is the Gunson Xenon light that Halfords sell for about £44 any good? [Not for use on the 7! ] Thanks www.mycaterham.com here Videos here 102,000 miles car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oilyhands Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 The gunsons one is good, but you cant beat snap-on.. Oily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caterhamnut Posted June 17, 2008 Author Share Posted June 17, 2008 oily! Yep - snap-on would be very nice! - but if you say the Gunson one is good, thats probably good enough for what I need in reality, and saved me about £150 - ta! Funnily enough I have just (this second!)downloaded you 'timing.zip' after Peter C pointed it to me just now whilst we discussed VW timing 😬 Looks like a very useful document - many thanks!

Area Representative paul richards Posted June 17, 2008 Area Representative Share Posted June 17, 2008 Angus I've had a gunsons xenon timing light for years and it's given me (and others) excellent service. Xenon is much better than neon - the light is much brighter and easier to see. Paul Richards Area Representative - L.A.D.S.

DohNut Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 Angus Have you shopped already? I think there may be one (Gunsons or simialar) knocking around in my mums garage that she is never going to use. Any use Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
