any strobe timing light works,. the only differences is new lights need better insulation ,so if the wire is bad (HV) it can live through a 100,000 volt direct hit.
lamps that fail to work are:
if it dont , its busted or the spark is weak (current pulse) in the ignition, and is a long list of things that, even having the dizzy parked. 45 degrees off (90 crank degrees)
if the HV leads is passing full spark current, the pickup will work, even down to 1960s cars.. even and old 64 GTO.
all that matters is that the spark is good.
the ebay tool is the same china import that HF uses. there are scads sellers and stored, buying this tool.
in fact HF fright sell it for 11 bucks on sale,
there is like 1 bucks of electronics there, the pickup and plastic are the 90% of cost. hell the box may be 10% of costs.
my lights all run off my lawn mower. 10,000 volt gutless system, try it>? (need batter pack 12v)
ive seen guys spin a dizzy willy nilly then wonder why the timing light is dead.
this happens because the spark at the rotor has no place to jump, timed way off.
