The light I have was a digital that will read tach and advance. Its simply an up/down or inc/dec . Its a Snap-on and its even got calibration tags hanging off of it when it was serviced.

I do have a snap-on inductance light as well also a loaned from another mechanic. ( Bluepoint)

Thanks for the heads up on accuracy. Worse comes to worse, I can verify one against the other....and if need be look for a third.

Yeah that was a lengthy post....sorry> I don't mean to be whenI first start out.

Thanks as well. I will look into the compatibility of this light with the advance light. Heck, I don't mind using the std inductance light. Used to those lights. Funny thing now that you mention the multiple spark characteristic of MSD. When the RPM function of this fancy light is called upon its all over the place, give or take 100 to 200. Not steady ( reminds me of using an analog meter and then going to a digital voltmeter) One has resolution they are not used to seeing. Analogs tend to smooth out these signals.

Will try the other light
