I'm shopping for a new timing light. My old Craftsman, while zenon, is not inductive, or with advance tuning features, or a built in tach. Pure old school.

I'm looking at a EQUUS INNOVA DIGITAL TIMING LIGHT 3568. Zenon, inductive, digital with advance tuning features and built in tach. Seems to be what I need., but...

Your comments/suggestions are appreciated.

FWIW,I've had a Equus timing light for over 10 years now and it's still going strong. Bought a low priced model without all the bells & whistles you can get on them today & I've been very happy with it. Good quality at a reasonable price.
I have a cheesy 40 year old Sears/Craftsman inductive timing light. Back in the days of breaker point ignitions (60's, early 70's) and during the early years of California smog inspections (late 70s), this light was in constant use. The plastic inductive clamp has been too close to too many exhaust manifolds, but the damn thing still works.

If I were in the market for a new timing light, I would consider the Matco model, out of respect for Mark and all he does for the Pantera hobby, for the friendship we all have here on the DTIC. Besides, he's a pretty cool guy.

on a cold night, in front of the fire place, very relaxing. Its called a buttery nipple.

Absurd? Don't knock until you try it.

I was at a December wedding a few years ago, open bar. It was cold night outside, temps below freezing. I was sitting at the table with the older generation, while the younger folks were on the opposite side of the room, dancing, drinking, carrying on. At my table a few quiet conversations were taking place, while some people were just sitting quietly watching the younger folks dancing, etc.

I went up to the bartender, taught him how to make a buttery nipple, and returned to my table with my first glass. I took a few sips when the lady sitting to my side asked what I was drinking, I handed her the glass, she took a sip "Oh my, that's wonderful". I told her to keep the glass, I went back to the bar & returned with a second glass. Another inquiry, what are you two drinking? I handed the glass over, arose and returned with my third glass. Soon the men at the table were getting up to get their own. Eventually all the older folks sitting around the table,about 15 in all, were sipping buttery nipples, and going back for seconds. Everybody became social, conversations were struck up, and getting louder. Pretty soon the senior table was the center of commotion.

leading the seniors astray, all in a nights work for a cowboy from hell
