Timing Light

Post by rdsar2k »

Thinking ahead, I have the electrical adapter kit for M vehicles. I also have a 12 Volt timing light (old school in line versus induction pickup). Is there a way to use the 12 volt timing light on these 24 volt rigs?

Yes, for the M170, if it's batteries are connected and arranged correctly, just connect the + lead to the far right battery's + post and the - lead to the far right battery's - post.

Everything we talk about with vehicles and aircraft the left and right are as they will be when you sit in the driver's seat and face the steering wheel.
