        Here's the deal: I've got a '70 Transporter W/1600 dual port, 009 &
stock carb. I use a test light to time it, procedure illustrated in Muir.
Many scoff at this method of timing. Twice I have taken it to a local shop
after timing by test light. They pull out the
super-expensive-digital-advancing-snap- on-strobe, and say I got it within
1-2 deg. of right on. I can live with those numbers. My test light cost me
$.99 at the local "under a dollar" store. Your experinces may differ.
