    wbeaton – can you explain what a “buzz box” is? I have Franks tool and would love to get better at timing these things. Nothing is nicer than an oldie that pulls over and starts on the first tug!

    VinTin probably has a better multimeter than me. I use the buzzbox in the link below. I can clip the leads to the magneto and keep both hands and eyes on the timing tool and points. The unit has a buzzer so there is no need to watch/hold the multimeter while you set it. It is a small thing, but anything that makes life in the shop a little easier is good with me. The buzzbox also works great on 4 cyl Mercurys.
