The new Ultra-Light Timing Light (EETL500) from Snap-on is more than a device to set timing. It is a multipurpose tool capable of measuring engine RPM, checking battery voltage and measuring secondary firing voltages and burn times. The new timing device not only features a diamond plate underside and large backlight LCD screen, it also has a dual LED flashlight in the patented pivoting head.
“Our timing light is a new classic. The Snap-on EETL500 is perfect if you work on older muscle cars with distributors and has some late model applications as well. It has a nostalgic look with modern features and functions,” said David Brekke, category manager for Snap-on. “The durable ultra-light and ergonomic design allows technicians to work with comfort.”
