Well you don't even have to do that if you put the motor at TDC, 10
degrees BTDC, 20 degrees BTDC, etc, and while the motor is stopped,
rotate the distributor until number #1 sparks.
But it's not nearly as accurate as a light.

carb.idle mixture w/vac.gauge, but not timing.

I would like to start this

I have learned from an
expert, Rich Kinsley, how to adjust your
timing. Timing lights....throw them away! To
many other factors to deal with i.e. worn
parts, cams, changes along the way, etc.
Adjust timing with your
vacuum gauge. Got my LA318 running right. Oh
course a bit of Mississippi Redneck
Expertise did not hurt either.
Comments welcome,
