Hi Stuart
Of course the inductive pick up does not work with the shielded wires. In fact no inductive pick up will work with the shielded wires. I get around this by removing the No 1 Cylinder wire and using a chunk of standard suppressed 7MM ignition wire in it's place. I just cut the ends off the wire and strip it back a 1/4" on each end so the conductor is exposed and jam it in the spark plug and the Dist cap making sure it bottoms out and the exposed conductor is touching the contacts in the spark plug and Dist. (8mm wires are too big to fit in the spark plug). I use a spare 12V battery to power the timing light. That timing light allows me to check the spark advance functions on both Vacuum and centrifugal. You can use the dwell meter on 1 cyl engines with the light you just have to double the reading on the 2cyl scale This light picks up the RPM from the spark plug wire. So as long as the light is fed with 12V it does not matter what voltage the system is. Matthew Quote:
